Zusammenfassung:

Es bestehen mehrere Schwachstellen in Mozilla Firefox und Mozilla Firefox ESR, sowie in Mozilla 
Thunderbird. Ein Angreifer kann dies ausnutzen, um das Programm zum Absturz zu bringen, um Daten zu 
manipulieren, um Sicherheitsmechanismen zu umgehen, um vertrauliche Daten einzusehen oder 
schädlichen Programmcode auszuführen. Zur erfolgreichen Ausnutzung genügt es, einen bösartigen Link 
anzuklicken bzw. eine E-Mail mit schädlichen Inhalten zu öffnen.
