CVE-2023-50762

When processing a PGP/MIME payload that contains digitally signed text, the first paragraph of the text was never shown to the user. This is because the text was interpreted as a MIME message and the first paragraph was always treated as an email header section. A digitally signed text from a different context, such as a signed GIT commit, could be used to spoof an email message. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 115.6.

Mozilla Thunderbird is a standalone mail and newsgroup client.

This update upgrades Thunderbird to version 115.6.0.

Multiple security issues were discovered in Thunderbird. If a user were tricked into opening a specially crafted website in a browsing context, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service, obtain sensitive information, bypass security restrictions, cross-site tracing, or execute arbitrary code.(CVE-2023-6857, CVE-2023-6858, CVE-2023-6859, CVE-2023-6861, CVE-2023-6862, CVE-2023-6863, CVE-2023-6864)

Marcus Brinkmann discovered that Thunderbird did not properly parse a PGP/MIME payload that contains digitally signed text. An attacker could potentially exploit this issue to spoof an email message. (CVE-2023-50762)

Marcus Brinkmann discovered that Thunderbird did not properly compare the signature creation date with the message date and time when using digitally signed S/MIME email message. An attacker could potentially exploit this issue to spoof date and time of an email message. (CVE-2023-50761)

DoHyun Lee discovered that Thunderbird did not properly manage memory when used on systems with the Mesa VM driver. An attacker could potentially exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2023-6856)

Andrew Osmond discovered that Thunderbird did not properly validate the textures produced by remote decoders. An attacker could potentially exploit this issue to escape the sandbox. (CVE-2023-6860)
