[USN-1020-1] Thunderbird vulnerabilities

Severity High
CVEs 4
Info Vulnerabilities

Thunderbird could be made to crash or run programs as your login if it opened a specially crafted file.

Jesse Ruderman, Andreas Gal, Nils, Brian Hackett, and Igor Bukanov
discovered several memory issues in the browser engine. An attacker could
exploit these to crash THunderbird or possibly run arbitrary code as the
user invoking the program. (CVE-2010-3776, CVE-2010-3777, CVE-2010-3778)

Marc Schoenefeld and Christoph Diehl discovered several problems when
handling downloadable fonts. The new OTS font sanitizing library was added
to mitigate these issues. (CVE-2010-3768)
