A flaw was found in the processing of malformed content. Malicious content could cause Thunderbird to crash or execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running Thunderbird. (CVE-2013-0787)
Note: This issue cannot be exploited by a specially crafted HTML mail message as JavaScript is disabled by default for mail messages. It could be exploited another way in Thunderbird, for example, when viewing the full remote content of an RSS feed.
After installing the update, Thunderbird must be restarted for the changes to take effect.
