Mozilla Thunderbird < 2.0.0.21 Multiple Vulnerabilities

high Log Correlation Engine Plugin ID 801212

Synopsis

The remote host is vulnerable to multiple attack vectors.

Description

The installed version of Thunderbird is earlier than 2.0.0.21. Such versions are potentially affected by the following security issues :

- There are several stability bugs in the browser engine that may lead to crashes with evidence of memory corruption. (MFSA 2009-01)

- By exploiting stability bugs in the browser engine, it might be possible for an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the remote system under certain conditions. (MFSA 2009-07)

- It may be possible for a website to read arbitrary XML data from another domain by using nsIRDFService and a cross-domain redirect. (MFSA 2009-09)

- Vulnerabilities in the PNG libraries used by Mozilla could be exploited to execute arbitrary code on the remote system. (MFSA 2009-10)

Solution

Upgrade to version 2.0.0.21 or higher.
