USN-352-1 fixed a flaw in the verification of PKCS certificate 
signatures. Ulrich Kuehn discovered a variant of the original attack 
which the original fix did not cover. (CVE-2006-5462)

Various flaws have been reported that allow an attacker to execute 
arbitrary code with user privileges by tricking the user into opening a 
malicious email containing JavaScript. Please note that JavaScript is 
disabled by default for emails, and it is not recommended to enable it. 
(CVE-2006-5463, CVE-2006-5464, CVE-2006-5747, CVE-2006-5748)
