Synopsis:	Moderate: thunderbird security update
Issue date:	2011-03-01
CVE Names:	CVE-2011-0051 CVE-2011-0053

Several flaws were found in the processing of malformed HTML content.
Malicious HTML content could cause Thunderbird to crash or, potentially,
execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running 
Thunderbird. (CVE-2011-0051, CVE-2011-0053)

Note: JavaScript support is disabled by default in Thunderbird. The 
above issues are not exploitable unless JavaScript is enabled.

All running instances of Thunderbird must be restarted for the update to 
take effect.
