CVE-2025-0510: Address of e-mail sender can be spoofed by malicious email

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 26/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.28% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. A user must open a link or visit a page. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: thunderbird (AlmaLinux:8) 128.7.0-1.el8_10.alma.1; thunderbird (AlmaLinux:9) 128.7.0-1.el9_5.alma.1; thunderbird (Debian:11) 1:128.7.0esr-1~deb11u1.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to thunderbird (AlmaLinux:8) 128.7.0-1.el8_10.alma.1; thunderbird (AlmaLinux:9) 128.7.0-1.el9_5.alma.1; thunderbird (Debian:11) 1:128.7.0esr-1~deb11u1 or later.

No known public exploit

No public exploit has been observed yet. That doesn't mean you're safe, only that the bar is a little higher.

Research context

For pentesters and researchers: attack profile, score disagreement, timeline, patch commits, credits, variant and chain candidates, bug bounty scope. All derived from existing data; no exploit code.
