Description José Jorge 2020-05-29 15:54:46 CEST
A small bugfix version of thunderbird was released, I will push it the testing.

Ref: https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/68.8.1/releasenotes
Comment 1 Thomas Andrews 2020-05-31 15:50:28 CEST
We need a package list before we can test this. Advisory information is usually included too, so we might know what to look for.

Also, recently Thunderbird updates have been accompanied by Firefox updates. Will that be the case this time?

Comment 2 Thomas Andrews 2020-05-31 15:57:34 CEST
OK, so the link you provided explains the changes. Sorry about that part of my comment. I admit that I wrote that before checking the link. 

But, we still need to know what packages are involved. Is it just the two thunderbird packages? Are there new language packs? Any other dependencies?
Comment 3 José Jorge 2020-05-31 15:59:45 CEST
Yes sorry, the build failed for MGA7, seraching for aworkaround.

Comment 4 David Walser 2020-06-01 21:47:04 CEST
You should probably just wait for 68.9.0 now that Firefox 68.9 is out, but I can't get nss to build.  See Bug 26711.
Comment 5 David Walser 2020-06-06 18:30:43 CEST
Mozilla has released Thunderbird 68.9.0 on June 3:
https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/68.9.0/releasenotes/

It fixes security issues:
https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/security/advisories/mfsa2020-22/

It also depends on the not-yet-completed nss update.

Comment 12 David Walser 2020-06-20 18:16:17 CEST
Advisory:
========================

Updated thunderbird packages fix security vulnerabilities:

If Thunderbird is configured to use STARTTLS for an IMAP server, and the server
sends a PREAUTH response, then Thunderbird will continue with an unencrypted
connection, causing email data to be sent without protection (CVE-2020-12398).

When browsing a malicious page, a race condition in our SharedWorkerService
could occur and lead to a potentially exploitable crash due to a use-after-free
(CVE-2020-12405).

Mozilla developer Iain Ireland discovered a missing type check during unboxed
objects removal, resulting in a crash due to type confusion with NativeTypes. We
presume that with enough effort that it could be exploited to run arbitrary code
(CVE-2020-12406).

Mozilla developers Tom Tung and Karl Tomlinson reported memory safety bugs
present in Firefox ESR 68.8. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory
corruption and we presume that with enough effort some of these could have been
exploited to run arbitrary code (CVE-2020-12410).

Comment 18 Thomas Andrews 2020-07-05 14:07:20 CEST
It was there, but David Walser removed it because Thunderbird 68.10 was pending, and needed to be built. See Bug 26891. 

Firefox 68.10 was built, sent to QA, tested, and validated. Bug 26890. But, it was supposed to be blocked from being pushed until the same happened with Thunderbird 68.10.
Comment 19 David Walser 2020-07-05 15:25:19 CEST
No, Firefox wasn't supposed to be blocked by Thunderbird, it's the other way around.  The Firefox updates include the nspr and nss updates that Thunderbird is built against, so the Firefox update has to be pushed first.  The packages this Thunderbird was built against were replaced, so the new update needs to be built.
Comment 20 Nicolas Lécureuil 2020-07-06 09:14:00 CEST
Firefox had been pushed, so all is OK for you to work :)
