It also provides more modern features, like openGL graphics, 3D sound and internet multiplaying. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: update to new version 0741 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.

[SECURITY] Fedora 7 Update: thunderbird-2.0.0.12-1.fc7
by updates＠fedoraproject.org 28 Feb '08

28 Feb '08

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2008-2118 2008-02-28 21:16:44 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : thunderbird Product : Fedora 7 Version : 2.0.0.12 Release : 1.fc7 URL : http://www.mozilla.org/projects/thunderbird/ Summary : Mozilla Thunderbird mail/newsgroup client Description : Mozilla Thunderbird is a standalone mail and newsgroup client. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Mozilla Thunderbird is a standalone mail and newsgroup client. Several flaws were found in the way Thunderbird processed certain malformed HTML mail content. A HTML mail message containing malicious content could cause Thunderbird to crash, or potentially execute arbitrary code as the user running Thunderbird. (CVE-2008-0412, CVE-2008-0413, CVE-2008-0415, CVE-2008-0419) Several flaws were found in the way Thunderbird displayed malformed HTML mail content. A HTML mail message containing specially-crafted content could trick a user into surrendering sensitive information. (CVE-2008-0591, CVE-2008-0593) A flaw was found in the way Thunderbird handles certain chrome URLs. If a user has certain extensions installed, it could allow a malicious HTML mail message to steal sensitive session data. Note: this flaw does not affect a default installation of Thunderbird. (CVE-2008-0418) Note: JavaScript support is disabled by default in Thunderbird; the above issues are not exploitable unless JavaScript is enabled. A flaw was found in the way Thunderbird saves certain text files. If a remote site offers a file of type "plain/text", rather than "text/plain", Thunderbird will not show future "text/plain" content to the user, forcing them to save those files locally to view the content. (CVE-2008-0592) Users of thunderbird are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to resolve these issues. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Tue Feb 26 2008 Christopher Aillon <caillon(a)redhat.com> 2.0.0.12-1 - Update to 2.0.0.12 * Thu Nov 15 2007 Christopher Aillon <caillon(a)redhat.com> 2.0.0.9-1 - Update to 2.0.0.9 * Wed Jul 25 2007 Martin Stransky <stransky(a)redhat.com> 2.0.0.5-2 - added ligature pango fix * Fri Jul 20 2007 Kai Engert <kengert(a)redhat.com> - 2.0.0.5-1 - 2.0.0.5 * Fri Jun 15 2007 Christopher Aillon <caillon(a)redhat.com> 2.0.0.4-1 - 2.0.0.4 * Fri Jun 8 2007 Christopher Aillon <caillon(a)redhat.com> 2.0.0.4-0.rc1 - 2.0.0.4 rc1 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #431732 - CVE-2008-0412 Mozilla layout engine crashes https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=431732 [ 2 ] Bug #431733 - CVE-2008-0413 Mozilla javascript engine crashes https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=431733 [ 3 ] Bug #431739 - CVE-2008-0415 Mozilla arbitrary code execution https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=431739 [ 4 ] Bug #431748 - CVE-2008-0418 Mozilla chrome: directory traversal https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=431748 [ 5 ] Bug #431749 - CVE-2008-0419 Mozilla arbitrary code execution https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=431749 [ 6 ] Bug #431751 - CVE-2008-0591 Mozilla information disclosure flaw https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=431751 [ 7 ] Bug #431752 - CVE-2008-0592 Mozilla text file mishandling https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=431752 [ 8 ] Bug #431756 - CVE-2008-0593 Mozilla URL token stealing flaw https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=431756 [ 9 ] Bug #431750 - CVE-2008-0420 Mozilla information disclosure flaw https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=431750 [ 10 ] Bug #435123 - CVE-2008-0304 thunderbird/seamonkey: MIME External-Body Heap Overflow Vulnerability https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=435123 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
