Description:
    Previous versions of the firefox and thunderbird packages are
    vulnerable to multiple attacks.  One vulnerability is in page
    rendering, and the remaining three vulnerabilities are in JavaScript.
    (JavaScript vulnerabilities do not affect thunderbird in the default,
    recommended configuration of not enabling JavaScript.)
