Holbert, Jesse Ruderman, and Randell Jesup discovered multiple memory
safety issues in Thunderbird. If a user were tricked in to opening a
specially crafted message, an attacker could potentially exploit these
to cause a denial of service via application crash, or execute
arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking Thunderbird.
(CVE-2016-1952)
Nicolas Golubovic discovered that CSP violation reports can be used to
overwrite local files. If a user were tricked in to opening a
specially crafted website in a browsing context with addon signing
disabled and unpacked addons installed, an attacker could potentially
exploit this to gain additional privileges. (CVE-2016-1954)
Jose Martinez and Romina Santillan discovered a memory leak in
libstagefright during MPEG4 video file processing in some
circumstances. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially
crafted website in a browsing context, an attacker could potentially
exploit this to cause a denial of service via memory exhaustion.
(CVE-2016-1957)
A use-after-free was discovered in the HTML5 string parser. If a user
were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website in a browsing
context, an attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a denial
of service via application crash, or execute arbitrary code with the
privileges of the user invoking Thunderbird. (CVE-2016-1960)
A use-after-free was discovered in the SetBody function of
HTMLDocument. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted
website in a browsing context, an attacker could potentially exploit
this to cause a denial of service via application crash, or execute
arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking Thunderbird.
(CVE-2016-1961)
Nicolas Gregoire discovered a use-after-free during XML
transformations. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially
crafted website in a browsing context, an attacker could potentially
exploit this to cause a denial of service via application crash, or
execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking
Thunderbird. (CVE-2016-1964)
A memory corruption issues was discovered in the NPAPI subsystem. If a
user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website in a
browsing context with a malicious plugin installed, an attacker could
potentially exploit this to cause a denial of service via application
crash, or execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user
invoking Thunderbird. (CVE-2016-1966)
Ronald Crane discovered an out-of-bounds read following a failed
allocation in the HTML parser in some circumstances. If a user were
tricked in to opening a specially crafted website in a browsing
context, an attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a denial
of service via application crash, or execute arbitrary code with the
privileges of the user invoking Thunderbird. (CVE-2016-1974)
Francis Gabriel discovered a buffer overflow during ASN.1 decoding in
NSS. A remote attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a
denial of service via application crash, or execute arbitrary code
with the privileges of the user invoking Thunderbird. (CVE-2016-1950)
Holger Fuhrmannek, Tyson Smith and Holger Fuhrmannek reported multiple
memory safety issues in the Graphite 2 library. If a user were tricked
in to opening a specially crafted message, an attacker could
potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service via application
crash, or execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user
invoking Thunderbird. (CVE-2016-1977, CVE-2016-2790, CVE-2016-2791,
CVE-2016-2792, CVE-2016-2793, CVE-2016-2794, CVE-2016-2795,
CVE-2016-2796, CVE-2016-2797, CVE-2016-2798, CVE-2016-2799,
CVE-2016-2800, CVE-2016-2801, CVE-2016-2802).

has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible
without introducing additional issues.
