Original advisory details:

 Jesse Ruderman, Josh Soref, Martijn Wargers, Jose Angel, Olli Pettay, and
 David James discovered several flaws in the browser and JavaScript engines
 of Firefox. If a user were tricked into viewing a malicious website, a
 remote attacker could cause a denial of service or possibly execute
 arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking the program.
 (CVE-2009-3979, CVE-2009-3981, CVE-2009-3986)

 Takehiro Takahashi discovered flaws in the NTLM implementation in Firefox.
 If an NTLM authenticated user visited a malicious website, a remote
 attacker could send requests to other applications, authenticated as the
 user. (CVE-2009-3983)

 Jonathan Morgan discovered that Firefox did not properly display SSL
 indicators under certain circumstances. This could be used by an attacker
 to spoof an encrypted page, such as in a phishing attack. (CVE-2009-3984)

 Jordi Chancel discovered that Firefox did not properly display invalid URLs
 for a blank page. If a user were tricked into accessing a malicious
 website, an attacker could exploit this to spoof the location bar, such as
 in a phishing attack. (CVE-2009-3985)");
