Chris, now that I look at this issue (it's the one you told me you were fixing in RHEL4 0day thunderbird), I don't think this is right. Can you update this bug with what you're actually fixing before I screw it up again. This is the correct information about this issue. Please ignore the opening comment. Title: Mail responds to cookie requests Severity: High Reporter: Michiel van Leeuwen Fixed in: Thunderbird 1.0 Mozilla Suite 1.7.5 Vulnerable: Thunderbird 0.6 - 0.9 Mozilla Suite 1.7 - 1.7.3 Description Mozilla mail clients from March to December 2004 responded to cookie requests accompanying content loaded over HTTP, ignoring the setting of the preference "network.cookie.disableCookieForMailNews" (disabled cookies are the default in mail). Cookies in mail (for example, spam) could be used to track people. Workaround Set the mail client not to load remote content at all (the default setting in Thunderbird, the "View as Simple text" option in the Mozilla Suite). Upgrade to the fixed version References https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=268107 An advisory has been issued which should help the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed with a resolution of ERRATA. For more information on the solution and/or where to find the updated files, please follow the link below.
