CVE-2006-2781
Double-free vulnerability in Mozilla Thunderbird before 1.5.0.4 and
SeaMonkey before 1.0.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of
service (hang) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a VCard that
contains invalid base64 characters.

CVE-2006-2779
Mozilla Firefox and Thunderbird before 1.5.0.4 allow remote attackers
to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary
code via (1) nested <option> tags in a select tag, (2) a
DOMNodeRemoved mutation event, (3) "Content-implemented tree views,"
(4) BoxObjects, (5) the XBL implementation, (6) an iframe that
attempts to remove itself, which leads to memory corruption.

Also this issue:

CVE-2006-2788
Double-free vulnerability in the getRawDER function for nsIX509Cert in
Firefox allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (hang)
and possibly execute arbitrary code via certain Javascript code.

These  also affects Firefox and Thunderbird, though in Thunderbird these bugs 
are likely not critical.  Normally javascript is turned off in Thunderbird, and
these vulnerabilities seem to be tied to having javascript turned on.

Title: Mozilla Firefox Javascript Navigator Object Remote Code
Execution
Description: Mozilla Firefox is prone to a remote code execution
vulnerability. The application fails to properly sanitize
user-supplied input  before using it to create a new Javascript
object. The vulnerability exists when assigning unspecified parameters
to the "window.navigator" object. An attacker may replace the
navigator object before Java starts to trigger this vulnerability.
Mozilla Firefox versions 1.5.0 to 1.5.0.4 are vulnerable to this
issue.

Or do you have any other idea what to do with it?

Matej, you are right.  This bug should be closed.

Closing CANTFIX.  -David
