patch available.

  - Thunderbird allowed feed subscriptions to file: URLs that point to a network share. If a user was tricked
    into subscribing to such a URL, Thunderbird connected to the attacker's server when fetching the feed.
    Windows then sent the user's NTLM credentials to that server. This bug only affects Thunderbird on
    Windows. Other operating systems are unaffected. This vulnerability was fixed in Thunderbird 160 and
    Thunderbird 153.7. (CVE-2026-126134)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
