A new Thunderbird vulnerabilities update is available for Ubuntu Linux. Here the announcement:
Ubuntu Security Notice USN-200-1 October 11, 2005
mozilla-thunderbird vulnerabilities
CAN-2005-2701, CAN-2005-2702, CAN-2005-2703, CAN-2005-2704,
CAN-2005-2705, CAN-2005-2706, CAN-2005-2707, CAN-2005-2968
===========================================================
A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:
Ubuntu 4.10 (Warty Warthog)
Ubuntu 5.04 (Hoary Hedgehog)
The following packages are affected:
mozilla-thunderbird
The problem can be corrected by upgrading the affected package to
version 1.0.7-0ubuntu04.10 (for Ubuntu 4.10), or 1.0.7-0ubuntu05.04
(for Ubuntu 5.04). After a standard system upgrade you need to
restart Thunderbird to effect the necessary changes.
Details follow:
A buffer overflow was discovered in the XBM image handler. By tricking
an user into opening a specially crafted XBM image, an attacker could
exploit this to execute arbitrary code with the user's privileges.
(CAN-2005-2701)
Mats Palmgren discovered a buffer overflow in the Unicode string
parser. Unicode strings that contained "zero-width non-joiner"
characters caused a browser crash, which could possibly even exploited
to execute arbitrary code with the user's privileges.
(CAN-2005-2702)
Georgi Guninski reported an integer overflow in the JavaScript engine.
This could be exploited to run arbitrary code under some conditions.
(CAN-2005-2705)
Peter Zelezny discovered that URLs which are passed to Thunderbird on the
command line are not correctly protected against interpretation by the shell.
If Thunderbird is configured as the default handler for "mailto:" URLs, this
could be exploited to execute arbitrary code with user privileges by tricking
the user into clicking on a specially crafted URL (for example, in an email or
chat client). (CAN-2005-2968)
This update also fixes some less critical issues which are described
at http://www.mozilla.org/security/announce/mfsa2005-58.html.
(CAN-2005-2703, CAN-2005-2704, CAN-2005-2706, CAN-2005-2707)
The "enigmail" plugin has been updated to work with the new
Thunderbird and Mozilla versions.
