Summary
=======

The package thunderbird before version 52.9.1-1 is vulnerable to
multiple issues including arbitrary code execution, cross-site request
forgery and information disclosure.

Resolution
==========

Upgrade to 52.9.1-1.

# pacman -Syu "thunderbird>=52.9.1-1"

The problems have been fixed upstream in version 52.9.1.

Workaround
==========

None.

Description
===========

- CVE-2018-5188 (arbitrary code execution)

Several memory safety bugs have been found in Firefox before 61.0 and
Thunderbird before 52.9. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory
corruption and Mozilla presumes that with enough effort some of these
could be exploited to run arbitrary code.

- CVE-2018-12359 (arbitrary code execution)

A buffer overflow can occur in Firefox before 61.0 and Thunderbird
before 52.9 when rendering canvas content while adjusting the height
and width of the <canvas> element dynamically, causing data to be
written outside of the currently computed boundaries. This results in a
potentially exploitable crash.

- CVE-2018-12360 (arbitrary code execution)

A use-after-free vulnerability can occur in Firefox before 61.0 and
Thunderbird before 52.9 when deleting an input element during a
mutation event handler triggered by focusing that element. This results
in a potentially exploitable crash.

- CVE-2018-12362 (arbitrary code execution)

An integer overflow can occur in Firefox before 61.0 and Thunderbird
before 52.9 during graphics operations done by the Supplemental
Streaming SIMD Extensions 3 (SSSE3) scaler, resulting in a potentially
exploitable crash.

- CVE-2018-12363 (arbitrary code execution)

A use-after-free vulnerability can occur in Firefox before 61.0 and
Thunderbird before 52.9 when script uses mutation events to move DOM
nodes between documents, resulting in the old document that held the
node being freed but the node still having a pointer referencing it.
This results in a potentially exploitable crash.

- CVE-2018-12364 (cross-site request forgery)

A security issue has been found in Firefox before 61.0 and Thunderbird
before 52.9, where NPAPI plugins, such as Adobe Flash, can send non-
simple cross-origin requests, bypassing CORS by making a same-origin
POST that does a 307 redirect to the target site. This allows for a
malicious site to engage in cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks.

- CVE-2018-12365 (information disclosure)

A security issue has been found in Firefox before 61.0 and Thunderbird
before 52.9 where a compromised IPC child process can escape the
content sandbox and list the names of arbitrary files on the file
system without user consent or interaction. This could result in
exposure of private local files.

- CVE-2018-12366 (information disclosure)

An invalid grid size during QCMS (color profile) transformations can
result in the out-of-bounds read interpreted as a float value, in
Firefox before 61.0 and Thunderbird before 52.9. This could leak
private data into the output.

- CVE-2018-12372 (information disclosure)

A security issue has been found in Thunderbird before 52.9, where
decrypted S/MIME parts, when included in HTML crafted for an attack,
can leak plaintext when included in a HTML reply/forward.

- CVE-2018-12373 (information disclosure)

A security issue has been found in Thunderbird before 52.9, where
S/MIME parts hidden with CSS or <plaintext> can leak plaintext when
included in a HTML reply/forward.

- CVE-2018-12374 (information disclosure)

A security issue has been found in Thunderbird before 52.9, where
plaintext of decrypted emails can leak through by user submitting an
embedded form by pressing enter key within a text input field.

Impact
======

A remote attacker can access sensitive information, bypass various
security mechanisms and execute arbitrary code on the affected host.
