New mozilla-thunderbird packages are available for Slackware 10.2, 11.0, 12.0,
12.1, and -current to fix security issues.

More details about the issues may be found on the Mozilla site:

http://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/thunderbird20.html

Here are the details from the Slackware 12.1 ChangeLog:

patches/packages/mozilla-thunderbird-2.0.0.17-i686-1.tgz:
Upgraded to thunderbird-2.0.0.17.
This upgrade fixes some more security bugs.
For more information, see:
http://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/thunderbird20.html
(* Security fix *)

Where to find the new packages:

HINT: Getting slow download speeds from ftp.slackware.com?
Give slackware.osuosl.org a try. This is another primary FTP site
for Slackware that can be considerably faster than downloading
directly from ftp.slackware.com.

Thanks to the friendly folks at the OSU Open Source Lab
(http://osuosl.org) for donating additional FTP and rsync hosting
to the Slackware project! :-)

Also see the “Get Slack” section on http://slackware.com for
additional mirror sites near you.
