these to cause a denial of service via application crash, or execute
arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking Thunderbird.
(CVE-2014-1493)

Atte Kettunen discovered an out-of-bounds read during WAV file decoding.
If a user had enabled audio, an attacker could potentially exploit this
to cause a denial of service via application crash. (CVE-2014-1497)

Robert O'Callahan discovered a mechanism for timing attacks involving
SVG filters and displacements input to feDisplacementMap. If a user had
enabled scripting, an attacker could potentially exploit this to steal
confidential information across domains. (CVE-2014-1505)
