Thunderbird 2.0.0.21 upgrades the libpng PNG library to fix critical memory safety hazards which could be used by a malicious website to crash a users browser and possibly execute arbitrary code. A second critical security vulnerability has been closed that could have allowed bugs in the browser engine used in Thunderbird to cause a crash and possibly be exploited to run arbitrary code.
