Security issues were identified and fixed in firefox 3.0.x :

Security researcher Alin Rad Pop of Secunia Research reported a heap-based buffer overflow in Mozilla's string to floating point number conversion routines. Using this vulnerability an attacker could craft some malicious JavaScript code containing a very long string to be converted to a floating point number which would result in improper memory allocation and the execution of an arbitrary memory location.
This vulnerability could thus be leveraged by the attacker to run arbitrary code on a victim's computer (CVE-2009-1563).

Security researcher Jeremy Brown reported that the file naming scheme used for downloading a file which already exists in the downloads folder is predictable. If an attacker had local access to a victim's computer and knew the name of a file the victim intended to open through the Download Manager, he could use this vulnerability to place a malicious file in the world-writable directory used to save temporary downloaded files and cause the browser to choose the incorrect file when opening it. Since this attack requires local access to the victim's machine, the severity of this vulnerability was determined to be low (CVE-2009-3274).

Security researcher Paul Stone reported that a user's form history, both from web content as well as the smart location bar, was vulnerable to theft. A malicious web page could synthesize events such as mouse focus and key presses on behalf of the victim and trick the browser into auto-filling the form fields with history entries and then reading the entries (CVE-2009-3370).

Security researcher Marco C. reported a flaw in the parsing of regular expressions used in Proxy Auto-configuration (PAC) files. In certain cases this flaw could be used by an attacker to crash a victim's browser and run arbitrary code on their computer. Since this vulnerability requires the victim to have PAC configured in their environment with specific regular expresssions which can trigger the crash, the severity of the issue was determined to be moderate (CVE-2009-3372).

Security research firm iDefense reported that researcher regenrecht discovered a heap-based buffer overflow in Mozilla's GIF image parser.
This vulnerability could potentially be used by an attacker to crash a victim's browser and run arbitrary code on their computer (CVE-2009-3373).

Mozilla security researcher moz_bug_r_a4 reported that the XPCOM utility XPCVariant::VariantDataToJS unwrapped doubly-wrapped objects before returning them to chrome callers. This could result in chrome privileged code calling methods on an object which had previously been created or modified by web content, potentially executing malicious JavaScript code with chrome privileges (CVE-2009-3374).

Security researcher Gregory Fleischer reported that text within a selection on a web page can be read by JavaScript in a different domain using the document.getSelection function, violating the same-origin policy. Since this vulnerability requires user interaction to exploit, its severity was determined to be moderate (CVE-2009-3375).

Mozilla security researchers Jesse Ruderman and Sid Stamm reported that when downloading a file containing a right-to-left override character (RTL) in the filename, the name displayed in the dialog title bar conflicts with the name of the file shown in the dialog body. An attacker could use this vulnerability to obfuscate the name and file extension of a file to be downloaded and opened, potentially causing a user to run an executable file when they expected to open a non-executable file (CVE-2009-3376).

Mozilla developers and community members identified and fixed several stability bugs in the browser engine used in Firefox and other Mozilla-based products. Some of these crashes showed evidence of memory corruption under certain circumstances and we presume that with enough effort at least some of these could be exploited to run arbitrary code. Vladimir Vukicevic, Jesse Ruderman, Martijn Wargers, Daniel Banchero, David Keeler, and Boris Zbarsky reported crashes in the browser engine which affected both Firefox 3 and Firefox 3.5 (CVE-2009-3380). Carsten Book reported a crash in the browser engine which affected only Firefox 3 (CVE-2009-3382).

This update provides the latest Mozilla Firefox 3.0.x to correct these issues.

Additionally, some packages which require so, have been rebuilt and are being provided as updates.

Update :

Packages for 2008.0 are provided for Corporate Desktop 2008.0 customers

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201301-01 (Mozilla Products: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Mozilla Firefox,       Thunderbird, SeaMonkey, NSS, GNU IceCat, and XULRunner. Please review the       CVE identifiers referenced below for details.
  Impact :

    A remote attacker could entice a user to view a specially crafted web       page or email, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code or a       Denial of Service condition. Furthermore, a remote attacker may be able       to perform Man-in-the-Middle attacks, obtain sensitive information,       bypass restrictions and protection mechanisms, force file downloads,       conduct XML injection attacks, conduct XSS attacks, bypass the Same       Origin Policy, spoof URL&rsquo;s for phishing attacks, trigger a vertical       scroll, spoof the location bar, spoof an SSL indicator, modify the       browser&rsquo;s font, conduct clickjacking attacks, or have other unspecified       impact.
    A local attacker could gain escalated privileges, obtain sensitive       information, or replace an arbitrary downloaded file.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

The remote host has a version of Mozilla Firefox earlier than 3.0.15 / 3.5.4 installed.  Such versions are potentially affected by multiple vulnerabilities : 

 - A user's form history, both from web content as well as the smart location bar, was vulnerable to theft. (MFSA 2009-52)
 - The file naming scheme used for downloading a file which already exists in the download folder is predictable.  An attacker with local access could exploit this to trick the browser into opening the incorrect downloaded file. (MFSA 2009-53)
 - Recursive creation of JavaScript web-workers can be used to create a set of objects whose memory could be freed prior to their use. Note that this only affects Firefox 3.5.x. (MFSA 2009-54)
 - A flaw exists in the parsing of regular expressions used in Proxy Auto-configuration (PAC) files. (MFSA 2009-55)
 - A heap-based overflow exists in Mozilla's GIF image parser. (MFSA 2009-56)
 - The XPCOM utility 'XPCVariant: : VariantDataToJS' unwrapped doubly-wrapped objects before returning them to chrome callers which could lead to chrome privileged code calling methods on an object which had previously been created or modified by web content. (MFSA 2009-57)

 - The text within a selection on a web page can be read by JavaScript in a different domain using the 'document.getSelection' function, violating the same-origin policy. (MFSA 2009-61)
 - When downloading a file containing a right-to-left override character (RTL) in the filename, the name displayed in the dialog title bar conflicts with the name of the file shown in the dialog body. (MFSA 2009-62)
 - Multiple memory safety and stability bugs exist in the 'liboggz', 'libvorbis', and 'liboggplay' libraries.  Note that this issue only affects Firefox 3.5.x. (MFSA 2009-63)
 - Several memory corruption issues exist in the browser engine. (MFSA 2009-64)
