CentOS Errata and Security Advisory CESA-2015:1586

Mozilla Firefox is an open source web browser. XULRunner provides the XUL
Runtime environment for Mozilla Firefox.

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-2015-4473, CVE-2015-4475, CVE-2015-4478, CVE-2015-4479,
CVE-2015-4480, CVE-2015-4493, CVE-2015-4484, CVE-2015-4491, CVE-2015-4485,
CVE-2015-4486, CVE-2015-4487, CVE-2015-4488, CVE-2015-4489, CVE-2015-4492)

Red Hat would like to thank the Mozilla project for reporting these issues.
Upstream acknowledges Gary Kwong, Christian Holler, Byron Campen, Aki
Helin, Andre Bargull, Massimiliano Tomassoli, laf.intel, Massimiliano
Tomassoli, Tyson Smith, Jukka Jylanki, Gustavo Grieco, Abhishek Arya,
Ronald Crane, and Looben Yang as the original reporters of these issues.
