Hi, I am trying the 2.0 beta. I have German Thunderbird 3.1.1 installed and PSI says that it is patched. But it is not, there is a new 3.1.2 available and that's not a brand new update! I installed 3.1.1 on purpose to check the auto update feature. Regards, Oliver |

Hello. If you go to "Patch your PC" in the psi2.0 Beta panel; and then Results....is the tick in the box "Auto Updateable" ? And if it is, does Thunderbird appear in the list of progs below ? Not all programs are included to be auto updated yet.....one reason why it's in Beta. Hope this helps..........regards, -- |

You'd probably have been better to post this/your observations, in the PSI 2.0 Beta section of the forum ( See in blue on the left ); as a Secunia official would more likely notice it on Monday morning. In fact if you close this thread, by pressing Accept, and post again, it'll likely receive more attention. This was what I copied from advisory section :- If you have information about a new or an existing vulnerability in Mozilla Thunderbird 3.1.x then you are more than welcome to contact us. Table of Contents 1. Product Summary Only Vendor, Links, and Unpatched Vulnerabilities Vendor Mozilla Foundation Product Link View Here (Link to external site) Affected By 2 Secunia advisories 12 Vulnerabilities Monitor Product Receive alerts for this product Unpatched 50% (1 of 2 Secunia advisories) Most Critical Unpatched The most severe unpatched Secunia advisory affecting Mozilla Thunderbird 3.1.x, with all vendor patches applied, is rated Highly critical . http://secunia.com/advisories/product/30717/ I couldn't find anything regarding the newer version 3.2 but noted it was available at site. regards, -- |

HI there , If you read the first two Secunia Advisories in this list :- http://secunia.com/advisories/search/?search=Mozil... You will see that :- 1) 3.1.2 and all prior versions are "insecure" no patch/solution available ,; so all versions are currently "insecure". 2)3.0.6 and 3.1.1 are both the last versions with a security update ; so 3.1.2 is a "bug" fix . The PSI does not record bug and eye candy fixes , so 3.1.1 is the last version recorded as "secure" by Secunia :- http://www.mozillamessaging.com/en-US/thunderbird/... MOST IMPORTANT : PLEASE NOTE : In the TP 1.9.0.2 version of the PSI the new "auto-update" facility only installed "international/English language" versions ; I do not know about Beta 2.0 but it does mean that if you have German settings for your Mozilla products , they may get removed/reset in English by "auto-update" . This has happened to a poster with a German Firefox set-up . Firefox may well update to 3.6.9. in the next few days . Unless you can find and confirm otherwise , at this stage , I would disable all programmes with German versions set to auto-update ; rather use the programme's own internal updater . I hope this is clear , if not , please ask :) Anthony -- It always seems impossible until its done. Nelson Mandela |
