Descriptions

A crash can occur when processing a crafted S/MIME message or an XPI package containing a crafted signature. This can be used as a denial-of-service (DOS) attack because Thunderbird reopens the last seen message on restart, triggering the crash again. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 60.5.

Puede producirse un bloqueo al procesar un mensaje S/MIME elaborado o un paquete XPI que contenga una firma elaborada. Esto puede utilizarse como un ataque de Denegación de Servicio (DOS) porque Thunderbird vuelve a abrir el último mensaje visto en el reinicio, desencadenando el bloqueo de nuevo. Esta vulnerabilidad afecta a las versiones anteriores a 60.5 de Thunderbird.

Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in Mozilla Thunderbird and Firefox, the worst of which could lead to the execution of arbitrary code. Versions less than 60.6.1 are affected.
