Title: Thunderbird regressions
Summary: USN-1551-1 introduced regressions in Thunderbird.
USN-1551-1 fixed vulnerabilities in Thunderbird. The new package caused a

exploit these to cause a denial of service via application crash, or
potentially execute code with the privileges of the user invoking
Thunderbird. (CVE-2012-1970, CVE-2012-1971)
