CVE ID: CVE-2009-4629

Description: Mozilla Necko, as used in Thunderbird 3.0.1, SeaMonkey, and other applications, performs DNS prefetching even when the app type is APP_TYPE_MAIL or APP_TYPE_EDITOR, which makes it easier for remote attackers to determine the network location of the application's user by logging DNS requests, as demonstrated by DNS requests triggered by reading text/plain e-mail messages in Thunderbird.

Test IDs: 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.800455 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.800456
