Thunderbird patched five bugs

Mozilla Messaging last week patched five bugs in its Thunderbird e-mail client to mend flaws that were unconcealed more than a month ago. Thunderbird 2.0.0.14 patches vulnerabilities in the Firefox engine, which the open-source e-mailer uses to intercommunicate HTML. The same holes were closed in New March for the Mozilla Web browser.

The bugs, which could be exploited by rogue JavaScript, had gone unfixed in Thunderbird because of resource shortages at the Mozilla spinoff, according to comments made at the time by its CEO, David Ascher. Click here to download the latest Thunderbird
