Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.68676
Category:Slackware Local Security Checks
Title:Slackware: Security Advisory (SSA:2010-317-01)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'mozilla-thunderbird' package(s) announced via the SSA:2010-317-01 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'mozilla-thunderbird' package(s) announced via the SSA:2010-317-01 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
New mozilla-thunderbird packages are available for Slackware 13.0,
13.1, and -current to fix security issues.


Here are the details from the Slackware 13.1 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/mozilla-thunderbird-3.0.10-i686-1.txz: Upgraded.
This upgrade fixes some more security bugs.

(* Security fix *)
+--------------------------+


As noted in the Slackware 13.0 ChangeLog, this is a major update there:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/mozilla-thunderbird-3.0.10-i686-1.txz: Upgraded.
With Thunderbird 2.x unmaintained, it seems like a good idea to provide a
upgrade to Thunderbird 3.x for security reasons. This will bring with it
quite a bit of changed functionality, so be prepared... one hint is that
it will now make local copies of remote mailboxes by default, so you will
need to have enough disk space to handle that.

(* Security fix *)
+--------------------------+

Affected Software/OS:
'mozilla-thunderbird' package(s) on Slackware 13.0, Slackware 13.1, Slackware current.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).
