Ubuntu Security Notice 2052-1 - Ben Turner, Bobby Holley, Jesse Ruderman, Christian Holler and Christoph Diehl discovered multiple memory safety issues in Firefox. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service via application crash, or execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking Firefox. Myk Melez discovered that the doorhanger notification for web app installation could persist between page navigations. An attacker could potentially exploit this to conduct clickjacking attacks. Various other issues were also addressed.
