Multiple security flaws were found in the graphite2 font library shipped
with Firefox. A web page containing malicious content could cause Firefox
to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of
the user running Firefox. (CVE-2016-1521, CVE-2016-1522, CVE-2016-1523)

After installing the update, Firefox must be restarted for the changes to
take effect.
