    Package : icedove
    Vulnerability : several
    Problem type : remote
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE ID : CVE-2013-5590 CVE-2013-5595 CVE-2013-5597 CVE-2013-5599
    CVE-2013-5600 CVE-2013-5601 CVE-2013-5602 CVE-2013-5604

    Multiple security issues have been found in Icedove, Debian's version of
    the Mozilla Thunderbird mail and news client. Multiple memory safety
    errors, and other implementation errors may lead to the execution of
    arbitrary code.

    The Icedove version in the oldstable distribution (squeeze) is no longer supported with full security updates. However, it should be noted that
    almost all security issues in Icedove stem from the included browser engine. These security problems only affect Icedove if scripting and HTML mails
    are enabled. If there are security issues specific to Icedove (e.g. a hypothetical buffer overflow in the IMAP implementation) we'll make an
    effort to backport such fixes to oldstable.

    For the stable distribution (wheezy), these problems have been fixed in
    version 17.0.10-1~deb7u1.

    For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in
    version 17.0.10-1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your icedove packages.
