JavaScript.

Here are the details from the Slackware 12.0 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/mozilla-thunderbird-2.0.0.9-i686-1.tgz:
 Upgraded to thunderbird-2.0.0.9.
 This update fixes the following security related issues:
 URIs with invalid %-encoding mishandled by Windows (MFSA 2007-36).
 Crashes with evidence of memory corruption (MFSA 2007-29).
 OK, so the first one obviously does not affect us. :-) The second fix has
 to do with the same JavaScript handling problem fixed before in Firefox.
 JavaScript is not enabled by default in Thunderbird, and the developers
 (at least in MFSA 2007-36) do not recommend turning it on.
 For more information, see:

 (* Security fix *)
