Several vulnerabilities were discovered in Icedove, Debian’s version of the Mozilla Thunderbird mail and news client.

This includes several instances of use-after-free and buffer overflow issues. The reported vulnerabilities could lead to the execution of arbitrary code, and additionally to the bypass of content-loading restrictions via the location object.
