  - The code to parse MIME headers for display when forwarding a message (if the setting to view all headers
    was enabled) had an off-by-one error, allowing a single byte to be read from the memory after the buffer
    for the headers, and potentially crashing Thunderbird. This vulnerability was fixed in Thunderbird 153 and
    Thunderbird 140.13. (CVE-2026-14899)

  - We are aware that exploit code for this is public however we are not aware of any attacks in the wild
    abusing this flaw. This vulnerability was fixed in Firefox 152.0.6, Firefox ESR 140.13, and Thunderbird
    140.13. (CVE-2026-15718)
