Original advisory details:

 Gary Kwong, Christian Holler, Jesse Ruderman, Steve Fink, Bob Clary, Andrew
 Sutherland, Jason Smith, John Schoenick, Vladimir Vukicevic and Daniel
 Holbert discovered memory safety issues affecting Thunderbird. If the user
 were tricked into opening a specially crafted E-Mail, an attacker could
 exploit these to cause a denial of service via application crash, or
 potentially execute code with the privileges of the user invoking
 Thunderbird. (CVE-2012-1970, CVE-2012-1971)

 Abhishek Arya discovered multiple use-after-free vulnerabilities. If the
 user were tricked into opening a specially crafted E-Mail, an attacker
 could exploit these to cause a denial of service via application crash, or
 potentially execute code with the privileges of the user invoking
 Thunderbird. (CVE-2012-1972, CVE-2012-1973, CVE-2012-1974, CVE-2012-1975,
 CVE-2012-1976, CVE-2012-3956, CVE-2012-3957, CVE-2012-3958, CVE-2012-3959,
 CVE-2012-3960, CVE-2012-3961, CVE-2012-3962, CVE-2012-3963, CVE-2012-3964)

 Mariusz Mlynsk discovered that it is possible to shadow the location object
 using Object.defineProperty. This could potentially result in a cross-site
 scripting (XSS) attack against plugins. With cross-site scripting
 vulnerabilities, if a user were tricked into viewing a specially crafted
 E-Mail, a remote attacker could exploit this to modify the contents or
 steal confidential data within the same domain. (CVE-2012-1956)

 Frederic Hoguin discovered that bitmap format images with a negative height
 could potentially result in memory corruption. If the user were tricked
 into opening a specially crafted image, an attacker could exploit this to
 cause a denial of service via application crash, or potentially execute
 code with the privileges of the user invoking Thunderbird. (CVE-2012-3966)

 It was discovered that Thunderbird's WebGL implementation was vulnerable to
 multiple memory safety issues. If the user were tricked into opening a
 specially crafted E-Mail, an attacker could exploit these to cause a denial
 of service via application crash, or potentially execute code with the
 privileges of the user invoking Thunderbird. (CVE-2012-3967, CVE-2012-3968)

 Arthur Gerkis discovered multiple memory safety issues in Thunderbird's
 Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) implementation. If the user were tricked
 into opening a specially crafted image, an attacker could exploit these to
 cause a denial of service via application crash, or potentially execute
 code with the privileges of the user invoking Thunderbird. (CVE-2012-3969,
 CVE-2012-3970)

 Christoph Diehl discovered multiple memory safety issues in the bundled
 Graphite 2 library. If the user were tricked into opening a ... [Please see the references for more information on the vulnerabilities]");
