The version of Mozilla Thunderbird installed on the remote macOS or Mac OS X host is prior to 45.6. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  • Multiple memory corruption issues exists, such as when handling document state changes or HTML5 content, or else due to dereferencing already freed memory or improper validation of user-supplied input. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit these to cause a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-9893)

  • A security bypass vulnerability exists due to event handlers for marquee elements being executed despite a Content Security Policy (CSP) that disallowed inline JavaScript. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to impact integrity. (CVE-2016-9895)

  • A memory corruption issue exists in libGLES when WebGL functions use a vector constructor with a varying array within libGLES. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-9897)

  • A use-after-free error exists in Editor, specifically within file editor/libeditor/HTMLEditor.cpp, when handling DOM subtrees. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2016-9898)

  • A use-after-free error exists in the nsNodeUtils::CloneAndAdopt() function within file dom/base/nsNodeUtils.cpp, while manipulating DOM events and removing audio elements, due to improper handling of failing node adoption. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2016-9899)

  • A security bypass vulnerability exists in the nsDataDocumentContentPolicy::ShouldLoad() function within file dom/base/nsDataDocumentContentPolicy.cpp that allows external resources to be inappropriately loaded by SVG images by utilizing β€˜data:’ URLs. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to disclose sensitive cross-domain information.
    (CVE-2016-9900)

  • An information disclosure vulnerability exists that allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to determine whether an atom is used by another compartment or zone in specific contexts, by utilizing a JavaScript Map/Set timing attack. (CVE-2016-9904)

  • A flaw exists in the nsDocument::EnumerateSubDocuments() function within file dom/base/nsDocument.cpp when adding and removing sub-documents. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted web page, to corrupt memory, resulting in a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2016-9905)
