    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Icedove, Debian's
    version of the Mozilla Thunderbird mail client. The Common
    Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following
    problems:

    CVE-2012-3982
    Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in the browser engine
    allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory
    corruption and application crash) or possibly execute
    arbitrary code via unknown vectors.

    CVE-2012-3986
    Icedove does not properly restrict calls to DOMWindowUtils
    methods, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended
    access restrictions via crafted JavaScript code.

    CVE-2012-3990
    A Use-after-free vulnerability in the IME State Manager
    implementation allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary
    code via unspecified vectors, related to the
    nsIContent::GetNameSpaceID function.

    CVE-2012-3991
    Icedove does not properly restrict JSAPI access to the
    GetProperty function, which allows remote attackers to bypass
    the Same Origin Policy and possibly have unspecified other
    impact via a crafted web site.

    CVE-2012-4179
    A use-after-free vulnerability in the
    nsHTMLCSSUtils::CreateCSSPropertyTxn function allows remote
    attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of
    service (heap memory corruption) via unspecified vectors.

    CVE-2012-4180
    A heap-based buffer overflow in the
    nsHTMLEditor::IsPrevCharInNodeWhitespace function allows
    remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified
    vectors.

    CVE-2012-4182
    A use-after-free vulnerability in the
    nsTextEditRules::WillInsert function allows remote attackers
    to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (heap
    memory corruption) via unspecified vectors.

    CVE-2012-4186
    A heap-based buffer overflow in the
    nsWav-eReader::DecodeAudioData function allows remote attackers
    to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors.

    CVE-2012-4188
    A heap-based buffer overflow in the Convolve3x3 function
    allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via
    unspecified vectors.

    For the stable distribution (squeeze), these problems have been fixed
    in version 3.0.11-1+squeeze14.

    For the testing distribution (wheezy) and the unstable distribution
    (sid), these problems have been fixed in version 10.0.9-1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your icedove packages.
