  A cross-site scripting (XSS) flaw was found in the way Thunderbird handled

  content. (CVE-2011-3648)

  Note: This issue cannot be exploited by a specially-crafted HTML mail
  message as JavaScript is disabled by default for mail messages. It could be
  exploited another way in Thunderbird, for example, when viewing the full
  remote content of an RSS feed.

  All Thunderbird users should upgrade to this updated package, which
  resolves this issue. All running instances of Thunderbird must be restarted
