CVE-2006-1045

Status: ModifiedLow (2.6)—💥 Exploit

The HTML rendering engine in Mozilla Thunderbird 1.5, when "Block loading of remote images in mail messages" is enabled, does not properly block external images from inline HTML attachments, which could allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information, such as application version or IP address, when the user reads the email and the external image is accessed.

CVSS

Version: 2.0
Vector: AV:N/AC:H/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N
Base score: 2.6

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 4.97%
Percentile among all scored CVEs: 92
Score date: 10/10/2026

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).

💥 Public exploits

Exploit code or detection templates are publicly available. This is not the same as confirmed active exploitation (KEV), but it raises the risk: patch with priority.
