Debian DLA-2881-1 : thunderbird - LTS security update

critical Nessus Plugin ID 156766

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing one or more security-related updates.

Description

The remote Debian 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dla-2881 advisory.

 - Mozilla developers Calixte Denizet, Kershaw Chang, Christian Holler, Jason Kratzer, Gabriele Svelto, Tyson Smith, Simon Giesecke, and Steve Fink reported memory safety bugs present in Firefox 95 and Firefox ESR 91.4. 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. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 91.5, Firefox < 96, and Thunderbird < 91.5. (CVE-2022-22751)

 - It was possible to construct specific XSLT markup that would be able to bypass an iframe sandbox. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 91.5, Firefox < 96, and Thunderbird < 91.5. (CVE-2021-4140)

 - Constructing audio sinks could have lead to a race condition when playing audio files and closing windows.
 This could have lead to a use-after-free causing a potentially exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 91.5, Firefox < 96, and Thunderbird < 91.5. (CVE-2022-22737)

 - Applying a CSS filter effect could have accessed out of bounds memory. This could have lead to a heap- buffer-overflow causing a potentially exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 91.5, Firefox < 96, and Thunderbird < 91.5. (CVE-2022-22738)

 - Malicious websites could have tricked users into accepting launching a program to handle an external URL protocol. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 91.5, Firefox < 96, and Thunderbird < 91.5.
 (CVE-2022-22739)

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

Solution

Upgrade the thunderbird packages.

For Debian 9 stretch, these problems have been fixed in version 1
