--

Several flaws were found in the processing of malformed web content. 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-2015-7201, CVE-2015-7205, CVE-2015-7210,
CVE-2015-7212, CVE-2015-7213, CVE-2015-7222)

A flaw was found in the way Firefox handled content using the 'data:' and
'view-source:' URIs. An attacker could use this flaw to bypass the same-
origin policy and read data from cross-site URLs and local files.
(CVE-2015-7214)

5.0 ESR, which corrects these issues. After installing the update, Firefox
must be restarted for the changes to take effect.
