The version of thunderbird installed on the remote host is prior to 102.4.0-1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2-2022-1900 advisory.

    2024-05-09: CVE-2021-28429 was added to this advisory.

    Integer overflow vulnerability in av_timecode_make_string in libavutil/timecode.c in FFmpeg version 4.3.2,     allows local attackers to cause a denial of service (DoS) via crafted .mov file. (CVE-2021-28429)

    When receiving an HTML email that contained an <code>iframe</code> element, which used a     <code>srcdoc</code> attribute to define the inner HTML document, remote objects specified in the nested     document, for example images or videos, were not blocked. Rather, the network was accessed, the objects     were loaded and displayed. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 102.2.1 and Thunderbird < 91.13.1.
    (CVE-2022-3032)

    A flaw was found in Mozilla. The Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory describes the issue of a Thunderbird     user replying to a crafted HTML email containing a meta tag, with the meta tag having the http-     equiv='refresh' attribute and the content attribute specifying an URL. Thunderbird started a network     request to that URL, regardless of the configuration, to block remote content. In combination with certain     other HTML elements and attributes in the email, it was possible to execute JavaScript code included in     the message in the context of the message compose document. The JavaScript code was able to perform     actions including, but probably not limited to, reading and modifying the contents of the message compose     document, including the quoted original message, which could potentially contain the decrypted plaintext     of encrypted data in the crafted email. The contents could then be transmitted to the network, either to     the URL specified in the META refresh tag or to a different URL, as the JavaScript code could modify the     URL specified in the document. This bug doesn't affect users who have changed the default Message Body     display setting to 'simple html' or 'plain text.' (CVE-2022-3033)

    A flaw was found in Mozilla. The Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory describes the issue of sending a     request to the remote document when receiving an HTML email that specified to load an iframe element from     a remote location. However, Thunderbird didn't display the document. (CVE-2022-3034)

    matrix-js-sdk is a Matrix messaging protocol Client-Server SDK for JavaScript. In versions prior to 19.4.0     events sent with special strings in key places can temporarily disrupt or impede the matrix-js-sdk from     functioning properly, potentially impacting the consumer's ability to process data safely. Note that the     matrix-js-sdk can appear to be operating normally but be excluding or corrupting runtime data presented to     the consumer. This issue has been fixed in matrix-js-sdk 19.4.0 and users are advised to upgrade. Users     unable to upgrade may mitigate this issue by redacting applicable events, waiting for the sync processor     to store data, and restarting the client. Alternatively, redacting the applicable events and clearing all     storage will often fix most perceived issues. In some cases, no workarounds are possible. (CVE-2022-36059)

    A flaw was found in Mozilla. According to the Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory, Thunderbird users who     use the Matrix chat protocol are vulnerable to a data corruption issue. An attacker could potentially     cause data integrity issues by sending specially crafted messages. (CVE-2022-39236)

    A flaw was found in Mozilla. According to the Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory, Thunderbird users who     use the Matrix chat protocol are vulnerable to an impersonation attack. A malicious server administrator     could fake encrypted messages to look as if they were sent from another user on that server.
    (CVE-2022-39249)

    A flaw was found in Mozilla. According to the Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory, Thunderbird users who     use the Matrix chat protocol are vulnerable to an impersonation attack. A malicious server administrator     could interfere with cross-device verification to authenticate their own device. (CVE-2022-39250)

    A flaw was found in Mozilla. According to the Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory, Thunderbird users who     use the Matrix chat protocol are vulnerable to an impersonation attack. An attacker could spoof historical     messages from other users, and use a malicious key backup to the user's account under specific conditions     in order to exfiltrate message keys. (CVE-2022-39251)

    A vulnerability was found in expat. With this flaw, it is possible to create a situation in which parsing     is suspended while substituting in an internal entity so that XML_ResumeParser directly uses the     internalEntityProcessor as its processor. If the subsequent parse includes some unclosed tags, this will     return without calling storeRawNames to ensure that the raw versions of the tag names are stored in memory     other than the parse buffer itself. Issues occur if the parse buffer is changed or reallocated (for     example, if processing a file line by line), problems occur. Using this vulnerability in the doContent     function allows an attacker to triage a denial of service or potentially arbitrary code execution.
    (CVE-2022-40674)

    A flaw was found in Mozilla. The Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory describes the issue that when     injecting an HTML base element; some requests would ignore the CSP's base-uri settings and accept the     injected element's base instead. (CVE-2022-40956)

    Inconsistent data in instruction and data cache when creating wasm code could lead to a potentially     exploitable crash.<br>*This bug only affects Firefox on ARM64 platforms.*. This vulnerability affects     Firefox ESR < 102.3, Thunderbird < 102.3, and Firefox < 105. (CVE-2022-40957)

    A flaw was found in Mozilla. The Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory describes the issue that by     injecting a cookie with certain special characters, an attacker on a shared subdomain, which is not a     secure context,could set and overwrite cookies from a secure context, leading to session fixation and     other attacks. (CVE-2022-40958)

    A flaw was found in Mozilla. The Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory describes the issue that certain     pages did not have their FeaturePolicy fully initialized during iframe navigation, leading to a bypass     that leaked device permissions into untrusted subdocuments. (CVE-2022-40959)

    A flaw was found in Mozilla. The Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory describes the issue that concurrent     use of the URL parser with non-UTF-8 data was not thread-safe, leading to a use-after-free problem and     causing a potentially exploitable crash. (CVE-2022-40960)

    A flaw was found in Mozilla. The Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory describes the issue of Mozilla     developers Nika Layzell, Timothy Nikkel, Jeff Muizelaar, Sebastian Hengst, Andreas Pehrson, and the     Mozilla Fuzzing Team reporting memory safety bugs present in Firefox 104 and Firefox ESR 102.2. Some of     these bugs showed evidence of memory corruption and the presumption that with enough effort, some have     been exploited to run arbitrary code. (CVE-2022-40962)

    Mozilla: A same-origin policy violation could have allowed the theft of cross-origin URL entries, leaking     the result of a redirect, via performance.getEntries(). (CVE-2022-42927)

    Mozilla: Certain types of allocations were missing annotations that, if the Garbage Collector was in a     specific state, could have lead to memory corruption and a potentially exploitable crash. (CVE-2022-42928)

    A flaw was found in Mozilla. The Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory describes the issue of a website     called window.print() causing a denial of service of the browser, which may persist beyond browser restart     depending on the user's session restore settings. (CVE-2022-42929)

    Mozilla developers Ashley Hale and the Mozilla Fuzzing Team reported memory safety bugs present in Firefox     105 and Firefox ESR 102.3. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory corruption and we presume that     with enough effort some of these could have been exploited to run arbitrary code. This vulnerability     affects Firefox < 106, Firefox ESR < 102.4, and Thunderbird < 102.4. (CVE-2022-42932)
