Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment

The remote host is missing the patch for the advisory MDKSA-2006:146 (mozilla-thunderbird).

A number of security vulnerabilities have been discovered and corrected
in the latest Mozilla Thunderbird program.
Corporate 3 had contained the Mozilla suite however, due to the support
cycle for Mozilla, it was felt that upgrading Mozilla to Firefox and
Thunderbird would permit for better future support for Corporate 3
users. To that end, the latest Thunderbird is being provided for
Corporate 3 users which fix all known vulnerabilities up to version
1.5.0.5, as well as providing new and enhanced features.
Corporate users who were using Mozilla for mail may need to explicitly
install the new mozilla-thunderbird packages.
For 2006 users, no explicit installs are necessary.
