The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200703-18 (Mozilla Thunderbird: Multiple vulnerabilities)

Georgi Guninski reported a possible integer overflow in the code     handling text/enhanced or text/richtext MIME emails. Additionally,     various researchers reported errors in the JavaScript engine     potentially leading to memory corruption. Additionally, the binary     version of Mozilla Thunderbird includes a vulnerable NSS library which     contains two possible buffer overflows involving the SSLv2 protocol.

Impact :

An attacker could entice a user to read a specially crafted email that     could trigger one of the vulnerabilities, some of them being related to     Mozilla Thunderbird's handling of JavaScript, possibly leading to the     execution of arbitrary code.

Workaround :

There is no known workaround at this time for all of these issues, but     some of them can be avoided by disabling JavaScript. Note that the     execution of JavaScript is disabled by default and enabling it is     strongly discouraged.
