Description John Helmert III archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2021-01-27 05:09:51 UTC
From the SeaMonkey 2.53.6 changelog:

SeaMonkey 2.53.6 uses the same backend as Firefox and contains the relevant Firefox 60.8 security fixes.

SeaMonkey 2.53.6 shares most parts of the mail and news code with Thunderbird. Please read the Thunderbird 60.0 release notes for specific changes and security fixes in this release.

Additional important security fixes up to Current Firefox 78.6 ESR and a few enhancements have been backported.


And it links to these pages as references for the vulnerabilities:

https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/security/known-vulnerabilities/firefox/
https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/security/known-vulnerabilities/thunderbird/


Firefox 60.8 advisory: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/security/advisories/mfsa2019-22/
Firefox 78.6 advisory: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/security/advisories/mfsa2020-56/
Thunderbird 60.0 advisory: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/security/advisories/mfsa2018-19/

A bit messy to track all the vulnerabilities, but of course these all report memory safety bugs that are presumed to be able to remotely execute code.
