Mozilla developers and community members reported memory safety bugs present in Firefox 72 and Firefox ESR 68.4.
When processing an email message with an ill-formed envelope, Thunderbird could read data from a random memory location.
If a template tag was used in a select tag, the parser could be confused and allow JavaScript parsing and execution when it should not be allowed.
When processing a message that contains multiple S/MIME signatures, a bug in the MIME processing code caused a null pointer dereference, leading to an unexploitable crash.
If a user saved passwords before Thunderbird 60 and then later set a master password, an unencrypted copy of these passwords is still accessible.
When deriving an identifier for an email message, uninitialized memory was used in addition to the message contents.
