CVE-2023-50762
When processing a PGP/MIME payload that contains digitally signed text, the first paragraph of the text was never shown to the user.
Impact
When processing a PGP/MIME payload that contains digitally signed text, the first paragraph of the text was never shown to the user. This is because the text was interpreted as a MIME message and the first paragraph was always treated as an email header section. A digitally signed text from a different context, such as a signed GIT commit, could be used to spoof an email message. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 115.6.
Affected products
| Vendor | Product | Affected versions |
|---|---|---|
| Mozilla | Thunderbird | before 115.6 |
| Debian | Debian Linux | Versions 11.0, 12.0 |
