Thunderbird
3.0.5 has been released. Release notes are available. This post lists the improvements in Thunderbird
3.0.5
over Thunderbird 3.0.4. This list encompasses almost every single
known fix that went into this release, but excludes platform-wide
fixes. Do check out the known
issues as well.
Impact key for security issues listed on the Mozilla
Foundation Security Advisories webpage:
- Critical:
Vulnerability can be used to run attacker code and install software,
requiring no user interaction beyond normal browsing.
- High:
Vulnerability can be used to gather sensitive data from sites in other
windows or inject data or code into those sites, requiring no more than
normal browsing actions.
- Moderate: Vulnerabilities that would otherwise be High or
Critical except they only
work in uncommon non-default configurations or require the
user to perform complicated and/or unlikely steps.
- Low: Minor security vulnerabilities such as Denial of
Service attacks, minor data leaks, or spoofs. (Undetectable spoofs of
SSL indicia would have “High” impact because those are generally used
to steal sensitive data intended for other sites.)
