+ <background>
+ <p>
+ Mozilla Thunderbird is a popular open-source email client from the
+ Mozilla Project.

+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Georgi Guninski reported a possible integer overflow in the code
+ handling text/enhanced or text/richtext MIME emails. Additionally,
+ various researchers reported errors in the JavaScript engine
+ potentially leading to memory corruption. Additionally, the binary
+ version of Mozilla Thunderbird includes a vulnerable NSS library which
+ contains two possible buffer overflows involving the SSLv2 protocol.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ An attacker could entice a user to read a specially crafted email that
+ could trigger one of the vulnerabilities, some of them being related to
+ Mozilla Thunderbird's handling of JavaScript, possibly leading to the
+ execution of arbitrary code.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time for all of these issues, but
+ some of them can be avoided by disabling JavaScript. Note that the
+ execution of JavaScript is disabled by default and enabling it is
+ strongly discouraged.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All Mozilla Thunderbird users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=mail-client/mozilla-thunderbird-1.5.0.10"</code>
+ <p>
+ All Mozilla Thunderbird binary users should upgrade to the latest
+ version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=mail-client/mozilla-thunderbird-bin-1.5.0.10"</code>
