The following vulnerabilities were found and fixed in Mozilla
|
|
Thunderbird:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Mark Dowd from ISS X-Force reported an
|
|
exploitable heap overrun in the GIF processing of obsolete Netscape
|
|
extension 2 (CAN-2005-0399)</li>
|
|
<li>Daniel de Wildt and Gael Delalleau
|
|
discovered a memory overwrite in a string library (CAN-2005-0255)</li>
|
|
<li>Wind Li discovered a possible heap overflow in UTF8 to Unicode
|
|
conversion (CAN-2005-0592)</li>
|
|
<li>Phil Ringnalda reported a possible
|
|
way to spoof Install source with user:pass@host (CAN-2005-0590)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</description>
|
|
<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
The GIF heap overflow could be triggered by a malicious GIF image
|
|
that would end up executing arbitrary code with the rights of the user
|
|
running Thunderbird. The other overflow issues, while not thought to be
|
|
exploitable, would have the same impact. Furthermore, by setting up
|
|
malicious websites and convincing users to follow untrusted links,
|
|
attackers may leverage the spoofing issue to trick user into installing
|
|
malicious extensions.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.

All Mozilla Thunderbird users should upgrade to the latest
|
|

<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=mail-client/mozilla-thunderbird-1.0.2"</code>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All Mozilla Thunderbird binary users should upgrade to the
|
|
latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=mail-client/mozilla-thunderbird-bin-1.0.2"</code>
