The installed version of Thunderbird is earlier than 16.0 and thus, is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  • Several memory safety bugs exist in the browser engine used in Mozilla-based products that could be exploited to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2012-3983)

  • ‘<select>’ elements can be abused to cover arbitrary portions of a newly loaded page and may also be utilized for click-jacking attacks. (CVE-2012-3984, CVE-2012-5354)

  • A violation in the HTML specification for ‘document.domain’ behavior can be abused, potentially leading to cross-site scripting attacks. (CVE-2012-3985)

  • Some methods of a feature used for testing (DOMWindowUtils) are not properly protected and may be called through script by web pages. (CVE-2012-3986)

  • A potentially exploitable denial of service may be caused by a combination of invoking full-screen mode and navigating backwards in history. (CVE-2012-3988)

  • A potentially exploitable crash can be caused when making an invalid cast using the ‘instanceof’ operator on certain types of JavaScript objects. (CVE-2012-3989)

  • When the ‘GetProperty’ function is invoked through JSAP, security checking can by bypassed when getting cross- origin properties, potentially allowing arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2012-3991)

  • The ‘location’ property can be accessed by binary plugins through ‘top.location’ and ‘top’ can be shadowed by ‘Object.defineProperty’, potentially allowing cross- site scripting attacks through plugins. (CVE-2012-3994)

  • The Chrome Object Wrapper (COW) has flaws that could allow access to privileged functions, allowing for cross- site scripting attacks or arbitrary code execution.
    (CVE-2012-3993, CVE-2012-4184)

  • The ‘location.hash’ property is vulnerable to an attack that could allow an attacker to inject script or intercept post data. (CVE-2012-3992)

  • The ‘Address Sanitizer’ tool is affected by multiple, potentially exploitable use-after-free flaws.
    (CVE-2012-3990, CVE-2012-3995, CVE-2012-4179, CVE-2012-4180, CVE-2012-4181, CVE-2012-4182, CVE-2012-4183)

  • The ‘Address Sanitizer’ tool is affected by multiple, potentially exploitable heap memory corruption issues.
    (CVE-2012-4185, CVE-2012-4186, CVE-2012-4187, CVE-2012-4188)
