Thunderbird 2.0.0.19 – Cross Platform Email Client with RSS Reader

Thunderbird  2.0.0.19 (Windows, Open Source, 6.5MB) [alt DL] is a great email client from the same people who brought you the Firefox browser.

Also available for Linux.

Security Fixes:

  • XSS and JavaScript privilege escalation
  • Escaped null characters ignored by CSS parser
  • Errors parsing URLs with leading whitespace and control characters
  • Cross-domain data theft via script redirect error message
  • XMLHttpRequest 302 response disclosure
  • Information stealing via loadBindingDocument
  • Crashes with evidence of memory corruption

Thunderbird is my favorite email client, for Windows and/or Linux. It has a nice RSS reader built-in, but I still prefer GreatNews (Windows only) for my feed reading.
