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-2014-1547, CVE-2014-1555, CVE-2014-1556,
CVE-2014-1557)

After installing the update, Firefox must be restarted for the changes to
