TencentOS Server 3: thunderbird (TSSA-2025:0600)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 275999

Synopsis

The remote TencentOS Server 3 host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The version of Tencent Linux installed on the remote TencentOS Server 3 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TSSA-2025:0600 advisory.

Package updates are available for TencentOS Server 3 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

CVE-2025-5986:
A crafted HTML email using mailbox:/// links can trigger automatic, unsolicited downloads of .pdf files to the user's desktop or home directory without prompting, even if auto-saving is disabled. This behavior can be abused to fill the disk with garbage data (e.g. using /dev/urandom on Linux) or to leak Windows credentials via SMB links when the email is viewed in HTML mode. While user interaction is required to download the .pdf file, visual obfuscation can conceal the download trigger. Viewing the email in HTML mode is enough to load external content. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 128.11.1 and Thunderbird < 139.0.2.

CVE-2025-6424:
A use-after-free in FontFaceSet resulted in a potentially exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 140, Firefox ESR < 115.25, Firefox ESR < 128.12, Thunderbird < 140, and Thunderbird < 128.12.

CVE-2025-6425:
An attacker who enumerated resources from the WebCompat extension could have obtained a persistent UUID that identified the browser, and persisted between containers and normal/private browsing mode, but not profiles. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 140, Firefox ESR < 115.25, Firefox ESR < 128.12, Thunderbird < 140, and Thunderbird < 128.12.

CVE-2025-6429:
Firefox could have incorrectly parsed a URL and rewritten it to the youtube.com domain when parsing the URL specified in an embed tag. This could have bypassed website security checks that restricted which domains users were allowed to embed. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 140 and Firefox ESR < 128.12.

CVE-2025-6430:
When a file download is specified via the Content-Disposition header, that directive would be ignored if the file was included via a <embed> or <object> tag, potentially making a website vulnerable to a cross-site scripting attack. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 140 and Firefox ESR < 128.12.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Tencent Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
