Build ID: 20151015151621

Steps to reproduce:

Simply forward some mails with HTML inline pictures.


Actual results:

Picture displayed in the sent mail is not the one in the original mail.
Here is a sample of the <img> tag found in the source of the forwarded mail :
<img 
id=3D"Image_x0020_1"
src=3D"cid:part7.04060200.03000=
507@xxxxxxxxxx.com"alt=3D"Description=C2=A0: XXXXX=
XXX"
height=3D"90" width=3D"445"
border=3D"0">


Expected results:

Inline picture should not change.
Yes, we've seen this before, e.g. bug 766495. According to bug 1201782, this can still occur. Bad. Not easy to fix.

I'll add a "me too" to this -- I get messages in reply to something I sent (using Mac Mail) from a Thunderbird (User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:38.0) Gecko/20100101 Thunderbird/38.5.0) user where some apparently random image from their system is attached in place of the original inline image I had sent him.

This is a really serious information disclosure issue!

Is it fixed in a more recent version of TB?
