|
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 type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
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.
|
|
</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.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
