"The version of Thunderbird installed on the remote Windows host is
prior to 60.7. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities
as referenced in the mfsa2019-15 advisory.
- If hyperthreading is not disabled, a timing attack
vulnerability exists, similar to previous Spectre
attacks. Apple has shipped macOS 10.14.5 with an option
to disable hyperthreading in applications running
untrusted code in a thread through a new sysctl. Firefox
now makes use of it on the main thread and any worker
threads. Note: users need to update to macOS 10.14.5
in order to take advantage of this change.
(CVE-2019-9815)
- A possible vulnerability exists where type confusion can
occur when manipulating JavaScript objects in object
groups, allowing for the bypassing of security checks
within these groups. Note: this vulnerability has
only been demonstrated with UnboxedObjects,
which are disabled by default on all supported releases.
(CVE-2019-9816)
- Images from a different domain can be read using a
canvas object in some circumstances. This could be used
to steal image data from a different site in violation
of same-origin policy. (CVE-2019-9817)
- A race condition is present in the crash generation
server used to generate data for the crash reporter.
This issue can lead to a use-after-free in the main
process, resulting in a potentially exploitable crash
and a sandbox escape. Note: this vulnerability only
affects Windows. Other operating systems are unaffected.
(CVE-2019-9818)
- A vulnerability where a JavaScript compartment mismatch
can occur while working with the fetch API,
resulting in a potentially exploitable crash.
(CVE-2019-9819)
- A use-after-free vulnerability can occur in the chrome
event handler when it is freed while still in use. This
results in a potentially exploitable crash.
(CVE-2019-9820)
- A use-after-free vulnerability can occur when working
with XMLHttpRequest (XHR) in an event loop,
causing the XHR main thread to be called after it has
been freed. This results in a potentially exploitable
crash. (CVE-2019-11691)
- A use-after-free vulnerability can occur when listeners
are removed from the event listener manager while still
in use, resulting in a potentially exploitable crash.
(CVE-2019-11692)
- The bufferdata function in WebGL is
vulnerable to a buffer overflow with specific graphics
drivers on Linux. This could result in malicious content
freezing a tab or triggering a potentially exploitable
crash. Note: this issue only occurs on Linux. Other
operating systems are unaffected. (CVE-2019-11693)
- A use-after-free vulnerability was discovered in the
pngimagefree function in the libpng
library. This could lead to denial of service or a
potentially exploitable crash when a malformed image is
processed. (CVE-2019-7317)
- Cross-origin images can be read in violation of the
same-origin policy by exporting an image after using
createImageBitmap to read the image and
then rendering the resulting bitmap image within a
canvas element. (CVE-2019-9797)
- Cross-origin images can be read from a
canvas element in violation of the same-
origin policy using the
transferFromImageBitmap method.
(CVE-2018-18511)
- A vulnerability exists in the Windows sandbox where an
uninitialized value in memory can be leaked to a
renderer from a broker when making a call to access an
otherwise unavailable file. This results in the
potential leaking of information stored at that memory
location. Note: this issue only occurs on Windows.
Other operating systems are unaffected. (CVE-2019-11694)
- If a crafted hyperlink is dragged and dropped to the
bookmark bar or sidebar and the resulting bookmark is
subsequently dragged and dropped into the web content
area, an arbitrary query of a user's browser history can
be run and transmitted to the content page via
drop event data. This allows for the theft
of browser history by a malicious site. (CVE-2019-11698)
- An out-of-bounds read can occur in the Skia library
during path transformations. This could result in the
exposure of data stored in memory. (CVE-2019-5798)
- Mozilla developers and community members Olli Pettay,
Bogdan Tara, Jan de Mooij, Jason Kratzer, Jan Varga,
Gary Kwong, Tim Guan-tin Chien, Tyson Smith, Ronald
Crane, and Ted Campbell reported memory safety bugs
present in Firefox 66, Firefox ESR 60.6, and Thunderbird
60.6. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory
corruption and we presume that with enough effort that
some of these could be exploited to run arbitrary code.
(CVE-2019-9800)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied
only on the application's self-reported version number.");
