The following vulnerabilities were found and fixed in Mozilla
|
|
Thunderbird:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>"moz_bug_r_a4" and "shutdown" discovered
|
|
that Thunderbird was improperly cloning base objects (MFSA
|
|
2005-56).</li>
|
|
<li>"moz_bug_r_a4" also reported that Thunderbird was
|
|
overly trusting contents, allowing privilege escalation via property
|
|
overrides (MFSA 2005-41, 2005-44), that it failed to validate XHTML DOM
|
|
nodes properly (MFSA 2005-55), and that XBL scripts ran even when
|
|
Javascript is disabled (MFSA 2005-46).</li>
|
|
<li>"shutdown" discovered a
|
|
possibly exploitable crash in InstallVersion.compareTo (MFSA
|
|
2005-50).</li>
|
|
<li>Andreas Sandblad from Secunia reported that a child
|
|
frame can call top.focus() even if the framing page comes from a
|
|
different origin and has overridden the focus() routine (MFSA
|
|
2005-52).</li>
|
|
<li>Georgi Guninski reported missing Install object
|
|
instance checks in the native implementations of XPInstall-related
|
|
JavaScript objects (MFSA 2005-40).</li>
|
|
<li>Finally, Vladimir V.
|
|
Perepelitsa discovered a memory disclosure bug in JavaScript's regular
|
|
expression string replacement when using an anonymous function as the
|
|
replacement argument (CAN-2005-0989 and MFSA 2005-33).</li>
|
|
</ul>

<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A remote attacker could craft malicious email messages that would
|
|
leverage these issues to inject and execute arbitrary script code with
|
|
elevated privileges or help in stealing information.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There are no known workarounds for all the issues at this time.
