The remote host is missing an update for the 'mozilla-thunderbird' package(s) announced via the USN-431-1 advisory. The SSLv2 protocol support in the NSS library did not sufficiently check the validity of public keys presented with an SSL certificate. A malicious SSL web site using SSLv2 could potentially exploit this to execute arbitrary code with the user's privileges. Various flaws have been reported that could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code with user privileges by tricking the user into opening a malicious web page
