Description Hanno Böck gentoo-dev 2018-05-19 07:17:24 UTC
Thunderbird 52.8.0 fixes some of the efail-related bugs.

Release notes:
https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/52.8.0/releasenotes/

I have an undisclosed efail-variant that works against 52.7.0 despite enigmail updates, the thunderbird update is thus crucial to properly fix efail.

CVE-2018-5183: Backport critical security fixes in Skia

Impact
    critical

Description

Mozilla developers backported selected changes in the Skia library. These changes correct memory corruption issues including invalid buffer reads and writes during graphic operations.


CVE-2018-5184: Full plaintext recovery in S/MIME via chosen-ciphertext attack

Impact
    high

Description

Using remote content in encrypted messages can lead to the disclosure of plaintext.


CVE-2018-5154: Use-after-free with SVG animations and clip paths

Impact
    high

Description

A use-after-free vulnerability can occur while enumerating attributes during SVG animations with clip paths. This results in a potentially exploitable crash.


CVE-2018-5155: Use-after-free with SVG animations and text paths

Impact
    high

Description

A use-after-free vulnerability can occur while adjusting layout during SVG animations with text paths. This results in a potentially exploitable crash.


CVE-2018-5159: Integer overflow and out-of-bounds write in Skia

Impact
    high

Description

An integer overflow can occur in the Skia library due to 32-bit integer use in an array without integer overflow checks, resulting in possible out-of-bounds writes. This could lead to a potentially exploitable crash triggerable by web content.


CVE-2018-5161: Hang via malformed headers

Impact
    moderate

Description

Crafted message headers can cause a Thunderbird process to hang on receiving the message.


CVE-2018-5162: Encrypted mail leaks plaintext through src attribute

Impact
    moderate

Description

Plaintext of decrypted emails can leak through the src attribute of remote images, or links.


CVE-2018-5170: Filename spoofing for external attachments

Impact
    moderate

Description

It is possible to spoof the filename of an attachment and display an arbitrary attachment name. This could lead to a user opening a remote attachment which is a different file type than expected.


CVE-2018-5168: Lightweight themes can be installed without user interaction

Impact
    moderate

Description

Sites can bypass security checks on permissions to install lightweight themes by manipulating the baseURI property of the theme element. This could allow a malicious site to install a theme without user interaction which could contain offensive or embarrassing images.


CVE-2018-5178: Buffer overflow during UTF-8 to Unicode string conversion through legacy extension

Impact
    moderate

Description

A buffer overflow was found during UTF8 to Unicode string conversion within JavaScript with extremely large amounts of data. This vulnerability requires the use of a malicious or vulnerable legacy extension in order to occur.


CVE-2018-5185: Leaking plaintext through HTML forms

Reporter
    Damian Poddebniak, Christian Dresen, Jens Müller, Fabian Ising, Sebastian Schinzel, Simon Friedberger, Juraj Somorovsky, Jörg Schwenk
Impact
    low

Description

Plaintext of decrypted emails can leak through by user submitting an embedded form.


CVE-2018-5150: Memory safety bugs fixed in Firefox 60, Firefox ESR 52.8, and Thunderbird 52.8

Impact
    critical

Description

Mozilla developers and community members Christoph Diehl, Randell Jesup, Tyson Smith, Alex Gaynor, Ronald Crane, Julian Hector, Kannan Vijayan, and Jason Kratzer reported memory safety bugs present in Firefox 59, Firefox ESR 52.7, and Thunderbird 52.7. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory corruption and we presume that with enough effort that some of these could be exploited to run arbitrary code.

Ebuild in tree.  Bumped dependency of enigmail to 2.0.5 to ensure its security bugs are dealt with at the same time.

Arches, please stabilize.
