Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.840417
Category:Ubuntu Local Security Checks
Title:Ubuntu: Security Advisory (USN-927-3)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'thunderbird' package(s) announced via the USN-927-3 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'thunderbird' package(s) announced via the USN-927-3 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
USN-927-1 fixed vulnerabilities in NSS. Due to upstream changes in NSS
3.12.6, Thunderbird would be unable to initialize the security component
and connect with SSL/TLS if the old libnss3-0d transition package was
installed. This update fixes the problem.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Original advisory details:

Marsh Ray and Steve Dispensa discovered a flaw in the TLS and SSLv3
protocols. If an attacker could perform a machine-in-the-middle attack at the
start of a TLS connection, the attacker could inject arbitrary content at
the beginning of the user's session. This update adds support for the new
new renegotiation extension and will use it when the server supports it.

Affected Software/OS:
'thunderbird' package(s) on Ubuntu 9.10.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
5.0

CVSS Vector:
AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N
