  vulnerabilities in the browser rendering engine. An attacker could use
  these to possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user
  invoking Firefox. (CVE-2011-2982)

  It was discovered that a vulnerability in event management code could
  permit JavaScript to be run in the wrong context. This could potentially
  allow a malicious website to run code as another website or with escalated
  privileges within the browser. (CVE-2011-2981)
  
  It was discovered that an SVG text manipulation routine contained a
  dangling pointer vulnerability. An attacker could potentially use this to
  crash Firefox or execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user
  invoking Firefox. (CVE-2011-0084)
  
  It was discovered that web content could receive chrome privileges if it
  registered for drop events and a browser tab element was dropped into the
  content area. This could potentially allow a malicious website to run code
  with escalated privileges within the browser. (CVE-2011-2984)
  
  It was discovered that appendChild contained a dangling pointer
  vulnerability. An attacker could potentially use this to crash Firefox or
  execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking Firefox.
  (CVE-2011-2378)
  
  It was discovered that data from other domains could be read when
  RegExp.input was set. This could potentially allow a malicious website
  access to private data from other domains. (CVE-2011-2983)";
