"Mozilla Thunderbird is a standalone mail and newsgroup client.

Several flaws were found in the processing of malformed content.
Malicious content could cause Thunderbird to crash or, potentially,
execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running
Thunderbird. (CVE-2012-3982, CVE-2012-3988, CVE-2012-3990,
CVE-2012-3995, CVE-2012-4179, CVE-2012-4180, CVE-2012-4181,
CVE-2012-4182, CVE-2012-4183, CVE-2012-4185, CVE-2012-4186,
CVE-2012-4187, CVE-2012-4188)

Two flaws in Thunderbird could allow malicious content to bypass
intended restrictions, possibly leading to information disclosure, or
Thunderbird executing arbitrary code. Note that the information
disclosure issue could possibly be combined with other flaws to
achieve arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2012-3986, CVE-2012-3991)

Multiple flaws were found in the location object implementation in
Thunderbird. Malicious content could be used to perform cross-site
scripting attacks, script injection, or spoofing attacks.
(CVE-2012-1956, CVE-2012-3992, CVE-2012-3994)

Two flaws were found in the way Chrome Object Wrappers were
implemented. Malicious content could be used to perform cross-site
scripting attacks or cause Thunderbird to execute arbitrary code.
(CVE-2012-3993, CVE-2012-4184)

Note: None of the issues in this advisory can be exploited by a
specially crafted HTML mail message as JavaScript is disabled by
default for mail messages. They could be exploited another way in
Thunderbird, for example, when viewing the full remote content of an
RSS feed.

After installing the update, Thunderbird must be restarted for the
changes to take effect."

following vulnerabilities :

  - Several memory safety bugs exist in the browser engine

    to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2012-3983)

  - Some methods of a feature used for testing 
    (DOMWindowUtils) are not properly protected and may be 
    called through script by web pages. (CVE-2012-3986)

  - A potentially exploitable denial of service may be 
    caused by a combination of invoking full-screen mode and 
    navigating backwards in history. (CVE-2012-3988)

  - When the 'GetProperty' function is invoked through JSAP, 
    security checking can by bypassed when getting cross-
    origin properties, potentially allowing arbitrary code 
    execution. (CVE-2012-3991)

  - The 'location' property can be accessed by binary 
    plugins through 'top.location' and 'top' can be shadowed 
    by 'Object.defineProperty', potentially allowing cross-
    site scripting attacks through plugins. (CVE-2012-3994)

  - The Chrome Object Wrapper (COW) has flaws that could 
    allow access to privileged functions, allowing for cross-
    site scripting attacks or arbitrary code execution. 
    (CVE-2012-3993, CVE-2012-4184)

  - The 'location.hash' property is vulnerable to an attack 
    that could allow an attacker to inject script or 
    intercept post data. (CVE-2012-3992)

  - The 'Address Sanitizer' tool is affected by multiple,
