    Multiple security issues were discovered in Thunderbird. If a user were tricked into opening a specially     crafted website in a browsing context, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of     service, bypass permission prompts, obtain sensitive information, bypass security restrictions, cause user     confusion, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2022-29909, CVE-2022-29911, CVE-2022-29912, CVE-2022-29913,     CVE-2022-29914, CVE-2022-29916, CVE-2022-29917)

    It was discovered that Thunderbird would show the wrong security status after viewing an attached message     that is signed or encrypted. An attacker could potentially exploit this by tricking the user into trusting     the authenticity of a message. (CVE-2022-1520)

    It was discovered that the methods of an Array object could be corrupted as a result of prototype     pollution by sending a message to the parent process.

The version of Thunderbird installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 91.9. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the mfsa2022-18 advisory.

  - When viewing an email message A, which contains an attached message B, where B is encrypted or digitally     signed or both, Thunderbird may show an incorrect encryption or signature status. After opening and     viewing the attached message B, when returning to the display of message A, the message A might be shown     with the security status of message B. (CVE-2022-1520)

  - When reusing existing popups Thunderbird would allow them to cover the fullscreen notification UI, which     could enable browser spoofing attacks. (CVE-2022-29914)

  - Documents in deeply-nested cross-origin browsing contexts could obtain permissions granted to the top-     level origin, bypassing the existing prompt and wrongfully inheriting the top-level permissions.
    (CVE-2022-29909)

  - Thunderbird would behave slightly differently for already known resources, when loading CSS resources     through resolving CSS variables. This could be used to probe the browser history. (CVE-2022-29916)

  - Thunderbird did not properly protect against top-level navigations for iframe sandbox with a policy     relaxed through a keyword like <code>allow-top-navigation-by-user-activation</code>. (CVE-2022-29911)

  - Requests initiated through reader mode did not properly omit cookies with a SameSite attribute.
    (CVE-2022-29912)

  - The parent process would not properly check whether the Speech Synthesis feature is enabled, when     receiving instructions from a child process. (CVE-2022-29913)

  - Mozilla developers Gabriele Svelto, Tom Ritter and the Mozilla Fuzzing Team reported memory safety bugs     present in Thunderbird 91.8. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory corruption and we presume that     with enough effort some of these could have been exploited to run arbitrary code. (CVE-2022-29917)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The version of Thunderbird installed on the remote macOS or Mac OS X host is prior to 91.9. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the mfsa2022-18 advisory.
