Important: thunderbird security update. Date: Thu, 12 Dec 2013 09:38:38 -0600 Reply-To: scientific-linux-users@ Sender: Security Errata for Scientific Linux From: Pat Riehecky Subject: Security ERRATA Important: thunderbird on SL5.x, i386/x86_64 MIME-Version: 1.0 Synopsis: Important: thunderbird security update Advisory ID: SLSA-2013:1823-1 Issue Date: 2013-12-11 CVE Numbers: CVE-2013-5609 CVE-2013-5612 CVE-2013-5614 CVE-2013-5616 CVE-2013-5618 CVE-2013-6671 CVE-2013-5613 -- Several flaws were found in the processing of malformed content. Malicious content could cause Thunderbird to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running Thunderbird. (CVE-2013-5609, CVE-2013-5616, CVE-2013-5618, CVE-2013-6671, CVE-2013-5613) A flaw was found in the way Thunderbird rendered web content with missing character encoding information. An attacker could use this flaw to possibly bypass same-origin inheritance and perform cross site-scripting (XSS) attacks. (CVE-2013-5612) It was found that certain malicious web content could bypass restrictions applied by sandboxed iframes. An attacker could combine this flaw with other vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running Thunderbird. (CVE-2013-5614) Note: All of the above issues cannot be exploited by a specially crafted HTML mail message as JavaScript is disabled by default for mail messages. They could be exploited another way in Thunderbird, for example, when viewing the full remote content of an RSS feed. After installing the update, Thunderbird must be restarted for the changes to take effect. -- SL5 x86_64 thunderbird-24.2.0-2.el5_10.x86_64.rpm thunderbird-debuginfo-24.2.0-2.el5_10.x86_64.rpm i386 thunderbird-24.2.0-2.el5_10.i386.rpm thunderbird-debuginfo-24.2.0-2.el5_10.i386.rpm - Scientific Linux Development Team .
