USN-1400-3 fixed vulnerabilities in Thunderbird. The new Thunderbird version caused a regression in IMAP connections and mail filtering. This update fixes the problem. Original advisory details: Soroush Dalili discovered that Firefox did not adequately protect against dropping JavaScript links onto a frame. A remote attacker could, through cross-site scripting (XSS), exploit this to modify the contents or steal confidential data.

An attacker could potentially exploit this to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking Firefox.
