  Security vulnerabilities addressed (MFSA 2019-03 boo#1122983 MFSA 2018-31):

  - CVE-2018-18500: Use-after-free parsing HTML5 stream

  - CVE-2018-18505: Privilege escalation through IPC channel messages

  - CVE-2016-5824: DoS (use-after-free) via a crafted ics file

  - CVE-2018-18501: Memory safety bugs fixed in Firefox 65 and Firefox ESR
  60.5

  - CVE-2018-17466: Buffer overflow and out-of-bounds read in ANGLE library
  with TextureStorage11

  - CVE-2018-18492: Use-after-free with select element

  - CVE-2018-18493: Buffer overflow in accelerated 2D canvas with Skia

  - CVE-2018-18494: Same-origin policy violation using location attribute
  and performance.getEntries to steal cross-origin URLs

  - CVE-2018-18498: Integer overflow when calculating buffer sizes for images

  - CVE-2018-12405: Memory safety bugs fixed in Firefox 64, 60.4, and
  Thunderbird 60.4

  Other bugs fixed and changes made:

  - FileLink provider WeTransfer to upload large attachments

  - Thunderbird now allows the addition of OpenSearch search engines from a
  local XML file using a minimal user interface: [+] button to select a
  file an add, [-] to remove.

  - More search engines: Google and DuckDuckGo available by default in some
  locales

  - During account creation, Thunderbird will now detect servers using the
  Microsoft Exchange protocol. It will offer the installation of a 3rd
  party add-on (Owl) which supports that protocol.

  - Thunderbird now compatible with other WebExtension-based FileLink
  add-ons like the Dropbox add-on

  - New WebExtensions FileLink API to facilitate add-ons

  - Fix decoding problems for messages with less common charsets (cp932,
  cp936)

  - New messages in the drafts folder (and other special or virtual folders)
  will no longer be included in the new messages notification

  - Thunderbird 60 will migrate security databases (key3.db, cert8.db to
  key4.db, cert9.db). Thunderbird 60.3.2 and earlier contained a fault
  that potentially deleted saved passwords and private certificate keys
  for users using a master password. Version 60.3.3 will prevent the loss
  of data  affected users who have already upgraded to version 60.3.2 or
  earlier can restore the deleted key3.db file from backup to complete the
  migration.

  - Address book search and auto-complete slowness introduced in Thunderbird
  60.3.2

  - Plain text markup with * for bold, / for italics, _ for underline and
  for code did not work when the enclosed text contained non-ASCII
  characters
