Various security fixes

The security fixes involved:

Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory 2021-47
Security Vulnerabilities fixed in Thunderbird 91.2

Announced
    October 6, 2021
Impact
    high

In general, these flaws cannot be exploited through email in the Thunderbird product because scripting is disabled when reading mail, but are potentially risks in browser or browser-like contexts.
#CVE-2021-38502: Downgrade attack on SMTP STARTTLS connections

Reporter
    Mattias Jacobsson
Impact
    high

Description

Thunderbird ignored the configuration to require STARTTLS security for an SMTP connection. A MITM could perform a downgrade attack to intercept transmitted messages, or could take control of the authenticated session to execute SMTP commands chosen by the MITM. If an unprotected authentication method was configured, the MITM could obtain the authentication credentials, too.

Reporter
    Maor Kleinberger

Reporter

    high

Description

Mozilla developers and community members Andreas Pehrson and Christian Holler reported memory safety bugs present in Thunderbird 91.1. 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.
