Synopsis

The remote Windows host contains a mail client that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The installed version of Thunderbird is earlier than 3.0.7. Such versions are potentially affected by the following security issues :

- Multiple memory safety bugs could lead to memory corruption, potentially resulting in arbitrary code execution. (MFSA 2010-49)

- An integer overflow vulnerability in HTML frameset element implementation could lead to arbitrary code execution.
(MFSA 2010-50)

- A dangling pointer vulnerability in 'navigator.plugins' could lead to arbitrary code execution. (MFSA 2010-51)

- It is possible to perform DLL hijacking attacks via dwmapi.dll. (MFSA 2010-52)

- A heap overflow vulnerability in function 'nsTextFrameUtils::TransformText' could result in arbitrary code execution on the remote system.
(MFSA 2010-53)

- A dangling pointer vulnerability reported in MFSA 2010-40 was incorrectly fixed. (MFSA 2010-54)

- By manipulating XUL <tree> objects it may be possible to crash the application or run arbitrary code on the remote system. (MFSA 2010-55)

- A dangling pointer vulnerability affects XUL <tree>'s content view implementation, which could allow arbitrary code execution on the remote system. (MFSA 2010-56)

- Code used to normalize a document could lead to a crash or arbitrary code execution on the remote system.
(MFSA 2010-57)

- A specially crafted font could trigger memory corruption on Mac systems, potentially resulting in arbitrary code execution on the remote system. (MFSA 2010-58)
- It is possible to trigger a cross-site scripting vulnerability using SJOW scripted function.
(MFSA 2010-60)

- The 'type' attribute of an <object> tag could override charset of a framed HTML document, which could allow an attacker to inject and execute UTF-7 encoded JavaScript code into a website. (MFSA 2010-61)

- Copy-and-paste or drag-and-drop of an HTML selection containing JavaScript into a designMode document could trigger a cross-site scripting vulnerability. (MFSA 2010-62)

- It is possible to read sensitive information via 'statusText' property of an XMLHttpRequest object.
(MFSA 2010-63)
