The remote Ubuntu 18.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-4202-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that a specially crafted S/MIME message with an inner encryption layer could be     displayed as having a valid signature in some circumstances, even if the signer had no access to the     encrypted message. An attacker could potentially exploit this to spoof the message author.
    (CVE-2019-11755)

    Multiple security issues were discovered in Thunderbird. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially     crafted website in a browsing context, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of     service, bypass security restrictions, bypass same-origin restrictions, conduct cross-site scripting (XSS)     attacks, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2019-11757, CVE-2019-11758, CVE-2019-11759, CVE-2019-11760,     CVE-2019-11761, CVE-2019-11762, CVE-2019-11763, CVE-2019-11764)

    A heap overflow was discovered in the expat library in Thunderbird. If a user were tricked in to opening a     specially crafted message, an attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a denial of service, or     execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2019-15903)

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.

Multiple security issues have been found in Thunderbird which could potentially result in the execution of arbitrary code or denial of service.

Debian follows the Thunderbird upstream releases. Support for the 60.x series has ended, so starting with this update we're now following the 68.x releases.

This plugin has been deprecated as it does not adhere to established standards for this style of check.

The version of Thunderbird installed on the remote macOS or Mac OS X host is prior to 68.1.1. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the mfsa2019-32 advisory.

  - A crafted S/MIME message consisting of an inner     encryption layer and an outer SignedData layer was shown     as having a valid digital signature, although the signer     might have had no access to the contents of the     encrypted message, and might have stripped a different     signature from the encrypted message. Previous versions     had only suppressed showing a digital signature for     messages with an outer multipart/signed layer.

    It was discovered that NSS incorrectly handled certain memory operations. A remote attacker could     potentially exploit this to cause a denial of service, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2019-11745)

    It was discovered that a specially crafted S/MIME message with an inner encryption layer could be     displayed as having a valid signature in some circumstances, even if the signer had no access to the     encrypted message.

    It was discovered that Message ID calculation was based on uninitialized data. An attacker could     potentially exploit this to obtain sensitive information. (CVE-2020-6792)

    Mutiple security issues were discovered in Thunderbird. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially     crafted message, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service, obtain     sensitive information, or execute arbitrary code.

    It was discovered that if a user saved passwords before Thunderbird 60 and then later set a primary     password, an unencrypted copy of these passwords would still be accessible. A local user could exploit     this to obtain sensitive information. (CVE-2020-6794)

    It was discovered that the Devtools Copy as cURL feature did not fully escape website-controlled     data. If a user were tricked in to using the Copy as cURL feature to copy and paste a command with     specially crafted data in to a terminal, an attacker could potentially exploit this to execute arbitrary     commands via command injection.
