Multiple security issues were discovered in Thunderbird. If a user were
tricked in to opening a specially crafted website in a browsing context,
an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service,
or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2019-9788, CVE-2019-9790, CVE-2019-9791,

A mechanism was discovered that removes some bounds checking for string,
array, or typed array accesses if Spectre mitigations have been disabled.
If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website in a
browsing context with Spectre mitigations disabled, an attacker could
potentially exploit this to cause a denial of service, or execute
