Title:RHSA-2018:0061: thunderbird security update (Important)
Description:Mozilla Thunderbird is a standalone mail and newsgroup client.

This update upgrades Thunderbird to version 52.5.2.

Security Fix(es):

  • Multiple flaws were found in the processing of malformed web content. A web page containing malicious content could cause Thunderbird to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running Thunderbird. (CVE-2017-7846, CVE-2017-7847, CVE-2017-7848, CVE-2017-7829)

    Red Hat would like to thank the Mozilla project for reporting these issues. Upstream acknowledges cure53 and Sabri Haddouche as the original reporters.
