rewriting (CVE-2018-12395)

* Mozilla: WebExtension content scripts can execute in disallowed contexts
(CVE-2018-12396)

* Mozilla: Memory safety bugs fixed in Firefox ESR 60.3 (CVE-2018-12389)

Bug Fix(es):

* Previously, passwords saved in the Firefox browser and encrypted by a
master password were erased when Firefox was exited. This update ensures
that NSS files used to decrypt stored login data are handled correctly. As
a result, the affected passwords are no longer lost after restarting
Firefox.
