Description:

   Mozilla Firefox was updated to Firefox 32 fixing security issues and bugs.

   Security issues fixed: MFSA 2014-72 / CVE-2014-1567: Security researcher
   regenrecht reported, via TippingPoint's Zero Day Initiative, a
   use-after-free during text layout when interacting with the setting of
   text direction. This results in a use-after-free which can lead to
   arbitrary code execution.

   MFSA 2014-70 / CVE-2014-1565: Security researcher Holger Fuhrmannek
   discovered an out-of-bounds read during the creation of an audio timeline
   in Web Audio. This results in a crash and could allow for the reading of
   random memory values.

   MFSA 2014-69 / CVE-2014-1564: Google security researcher Michal Zalewski
   discovered that when a malformated GIF image is rendered in certain
   circumstances, memory is not properly initialized before use. The
   resulting image then uses this memory during rendering. This could allow
   for the a script in web content to access this unitialized memory using
   the <canvas> feature.

   MFSA 2014-68 / CVE-2014-1563: Security researcher Abhishek Arya (Inferno)
   of the Google Chrome Security Team used the Address Sanitizer tool to
   discover a use-after-free during cycle collection. This was found in
   interactions with the SVG content through the document object model (DOM)
   with animating SVG content. This leads to a potentially exploitable crash.

   MFSA 2014-67: Mozilla developers and community identified and fixed
   several memory safety bugs in the browser engine used in Firefox and other
   Mozilla-based products. Some of these bugs 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.

   Jan de Mooij reported a memory safety problem that affects Firefox ESR
   24.7, ESR 31 and Firefox 31. (CVE-2014-1562)

   Christian Holler, Jan de Mooij, Karl Tomlinson, Randell Jesup, Gary Kwong,
   Jesse Ruderman, and JW Wang reported memory safety problems and crashes
   that affect Firefox ESR 31 and Firefox 31. (CVE-2014-1553)

   Gary Kwong, Christian Holler, and David Weir reported memory safety
   problems and crashes that affect Firefox 31. (CVE-2014-1554)

   Mozilla NSS was updated to 3.16.4: Notable Changes:
   * The following 1024-bit root CA certificate was restored to allow more
     time to develop a better transition strategy for affected sites. It was
     removed in NSS 3.16.3, but discussion in the mozilla.dev.security.policy
     forum led to the decision to keep this root included longer in order to
     give website administrators more time to update their web servers.
       - CN = GTE CyberTrust Global Root
   * In NSS 3.16.3, the 1024-bit "Entrust.net Secure Server Certification
     Authority" root CA certificate was removed. In NSS 3.16.4, a 2048-bit
     intermediate CA certificate has been included, without explicit trust.
     The intention is to mitigate the effects of the previous removal of the
     1024-bit Entrust.net root certificate, because many public Internet
     sites still use the "USERTrust Legacy Secure Server CA" intermediate
     certificate that is signed by the 1024-bit Entrust.net root certificate.
     The inclusion of the intermediate certificate is a temporary measure to
     allow those sites to function, by allowing them to find a trust path to
     another 2048-bit root CA certificate. The temporarily included
     intermediate certificate expires November 1, 2015.
