[sflack-security] thunderbird (SFSA:2007-205-01)

New Thunderbird packages are available for Sflack 11.0 and 12.0
to fix two possible security issues.

More details about the issues may be found here:
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/known-vulnerabilities.html#thunderbird


Here are the details from the Sflack 12.0 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/mozilla-thunderbird-2.0.0.5-x86_64-1.tgz:
Upgraded to thunderbird-2.0.0.5. Since Thunderbird shares the browser engine
with Firefox it is susceptible to similar vulnerabilities. This update fixes
the same issues fixed in the recent Firefox patch.
For more information, see:
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/known-vulnerabilities.html#thunderbird
(* Security fix *)
