The remote Ubuntu 18.04 LTS / 20.04 LTS / 22.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-5512-1 advisory.

    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, obtain sensitive information, spoof the UI, bypass CSP restrictions, or execute arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2022-2200, CVE-2022-31736, CVE-2022-31737, CVE-2022-31738, CVE-2022-31740, CVE-2022-31741,     CVE-2022-31742, CVE-2022-31744, CVE-2022-31747, CVE-2022-34468, CVE-2022-34470, CVE-2022-34479,     CVE-2022-34481, CVE-2022-34484)

    It was discovered that an unavailable PAC file caused OCSP requests to be blocked, resulting in incorrect     error pages being displayed. (CVE-2022-34472)

    It was discovered that the Braille space character could be used to cause Thunderbird to display the wrong     sender address for signed messages. An attacker could potentially exploit this to trick the user into     believing a message had been sent from somebody they trusted. (CVE-2022-1834)

    It was discovered that Thunderbird would consider an email with a mismatched OpenPGP signature date as     valid. An attacker could potentially exploit this by replaying an older message in order to trick the user     into believing that the statements in the message are current. (CVE-2022-2226)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.

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