Thunderbird 102.8.0 Security Notes
#CVE-2023-0616: User Interface lockup with messages combining S/MIME and OpenPGP
- Reporter
- Kai Engert
- Impact
- low
Description
If a MIME email combines OpenPGP and OpenPGP MIME data in a certain way Thunderbird repeatedly attempts to process and display the message, which could cause Thunderbird’s user interface to lock up and no longer respond to the user’s actions. An attacker could send a crafted message with this structure to attempt a DoS attack.

#CVE-2023-25738: Printing on Windows could potentially crash Thunderbird with some device drivers
- Reporter
- Mark
- Impact
- high
Description
Members of the DEVMODEW struct set by the printer device driver weren’t being validated and could have resulted in invalid values which in turn would cause the browser to attempt out of bounds access to related variables.
This bug only affects Thunderbird on Windows. Other operating systems are unaffected.

#CVE-2023-25739: Use-after-free in mozilla::dom::ScriptLoadContext::~ScriptLoadContext
- Reporter
- Holger Fuhrmannek
- Impact
- high
Description
Module load requests that failed were not being checked as to whether or not they were cancelled causing a use-after-free in ScriptLoadContext.

#CVE-2023-25729: Extensions could have opened external schemes without user knowledge
- Reporter
- Vitor Torres
- Impact
- moderate
Description
Permission prompts for opening external schemes were only shown for ContentPrincipals resulting in extensions being able to open them without user interaction via ExpandedPrincipals. This could lead to further malicious actions such as downloading files or interacting with software already installed on the system.

- Reporter
- Ronald Crane
- Impact
- moderate
Description

#CVE-2023-25734: Opening local .url files could cause unexpected network loads
- Reporter
- Ameen Basha M K and Shaheen Fazim
- Impact
- moderate
Description
After downloading a Windows .url shortcut from the local filesystem, an attacker could supply a remote path that would lead to unexpected network requests from the operating system. This also had the potential to leak NTLM credentials to the resource.
This bug only affects Thunderbird on Windows. Other operating systems are unaffected.

#CVE-2023-25746: Memory safety bugs fixed in Thunderbird 102.8
- Reporter
- Mozilla developers and community
- Impact
- high
Description
Mozilla developers Philipp and Gabriele Svelto reported memory safety bugs present in Thunderbird 102.7. 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.
