Description:
Multiple vulnerabilities were reported in Mozilla Thunderbird. A remote user can cause arbitrary code to be executed on the target user's system. A remote user can access restricted resources.
A remote user can create specially crafted HTML-based e-mail that, when loaded by the target user, will trigger a memory corruption error and execute arbitrary code on the target system [CVE-2011-0069, CVE-2011-0070, CVE-2011-0072, CVE-2011-0074, CVE-2011-0075, CVE-2011-0077, CVE-2011-0078, CVE-2011-0079, CVE-2011-0080, CVE-2011-0081]. The code will run with the privileges of the target user.
Mozilla developers Boris Zbarsky, Gary Kwong, Jesse Ruderman, Michael Wu, Nils, Scoobidiver, Bob Clary, Henri Sivonen, Marco Bonardo, Mats Palmgren, and Ted Mielczarek, the web development team of Alcidion, Ian Beer, and Aki Helin reported these vulnerabilities.
