Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in Mozilla Thunderbird's HTML browser engine (CVE-2007-5339) and JavaScript engine (CVE-2007-5340) that can be exploited to cause a memory corruption.
Impact :
A remote attacker could entice a user to read a specially crafted email that could trigger one of the vulnerabilities, possibly leading to the execution of arbitrary code.
Workaround :
There is no known workaround at this time for all of these issues, but some of them can be avoided by disabling JavaScript.
