Debian DLA-3324-1 : thunderbird - LTS security update

high Nessus Plugin ID 171642

Language:

Synopsis

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

Description

The remote Debian 10 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dla-3324 advisory.

- An out of date library (libusrsctp) contained vulnerabilities that could potentially be exploited. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 108. (CVE-2022-46871)

- By confusing the browser, the fullscreen notification could have been delayed or suppressed, resulting in potential user confusion or spoofing attacks. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 108. (CVE-2022-46877)

- Certificate OCSP revocation status was not checked when verifying S/Mime signatures. Mail signed with a revoked certificate would be displayed as having a valid signature. Thunderbird versions from 68 to 102.7.0 were affected by this bug. (CVE-2023-0430)

- If a MIME email combines OpenPGP and OpenPGP MIME data in a certain way Thunderbird repeatedly attempts to process and display the message, which could cause Thunderbird's user interface to lock up and no longer respond to the user's actions. An attacker could send a crafted message with this structure to attempt a DoS attack. (CVE-2023-0616)

- An attacker could construct a PKCS 12 cert bundle in such a way that could allow for arbitrary memory writes via PKCS 12 Safe Bag attributes being mishandled. (CVE-2023-0767)

- Mozilla: Arbitrary file read from GTK drag and drop on Linux (CVE-2023-23598)

- Mozilla: URL being dragged from cross-origin iframe into same tab triggers navigation (CVE-2023-23601)

- Mozilla: Content Security Policy wasn't being correctly applied to WebSockets in WebWorkers (CVE-2023-23602)

- Mozilla: Calls to <code>console.log</code> allowed bypasing Content Security Policy via format directive (CVE-2023-23603)

- Mozilla: Memory safety bugs fixed in Firefox 109 and Firefox ESR 102.7 (CVE-2023-23605)

- Mozilla: Content security policy leak in violation reports using iframes (CVE-2023-25728)

- Permission prompts for opening external schemes were only shown for <code>ContentPrincipals</code> resulting in extensions being able to open them without user interaction via <code>ExpandedPrincipals</code>. This could lead to further malicious actions such as downloading files or interacting with software already installed on the system. (CVE-2023-25729)

- A background script invoking <code>requestFullscreen</code> and then blocking the main thread could force the browser into fullscreen mode indefinitely, resulting in potential user confusion or spoofing attacks.
(CVE-2023-25730)

- When encoding data from an <code>inputStream</code> in <code>xpcom</code> the size of the input being encoded was not correctly calculated potentially leading to an out of bounds memory write.
(CVE-2023-25732)

- Cross-compartment wrappers wrapping a scripted proxy could have caused objects from other compartments to be stored in the main compartment resulting in a use-after-free after unwrapping the proxy.
(CVE-2023-25735)

- An invalid downcast from <code>nsTextNode</code> to <code>SVGElement</code> could have lead to undefined behavior. (CVE-2023-25737)

- Module load requests that failed were not being checked as to whether or not they were cancelled causing a use-after-free in <code>ScriptLoadContext</code>. (CVE-2023-25739)

- When importing a SPKI RSA public key as ECDSA P-256, the key would be handled incorrectly causing the tab to crash. (CVE-2023-25742)

- Mozilla developers Kershaw Chang and the Mozilla Fuzzing Team reported memory safety bugs present in Firefox 109 and Firefox ESR 102.7. 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-2023-25744)

- Mozilla developers Philipp and Gabriele Svelto reported memory safety bugs present in Thunderbird 102.7.
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-2023-25746)

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

Solution

Upgrade the thunderbird packages.

For Debian 10 buster, these problems have been fixed in version 1
