USN-2656-1 fixed vulnerabilities in Firefox for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and later releases.

This update provides the corresponding update for Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.

Karthikeyan Bhargavan discovered that NSS incorrectly handled state transitions for the TLS state machine. If a remote attacker were able to perform a man-in-the-middle attack, this flaw could be exploited to skip the ServerKeyExchange message and remove the forward-secrecy property. (CVE-2015-2721)

Looben Yan discovered 2 use-after-free issues when using XMLHttpRequest in some circumstances. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service via application crash, or execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking Firefox. (CVE-2015-2722, CVE-2015-2733)

Bob Clary, Christian Holler, Bobby Holley, Andrew McCreight, Terrence Cole, Steve Fink, Mats Palmgren, Wes Kocher, Andreas Pehrson, Tooru Fujisawa, Andrew Sutherland, and Gary Kwong discovered multiple memory safety issues in Firefox.
If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service via application crash, or execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking Firefox. (CVE-2015-2724, CVE-2015-2725, CVE-2015-2726)

Armin Razmdjou discovered that opening hyperlinks with specific mouse and key combinations could allow a Chrome privileged URL to be opened without context restrictions being preserved. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to bypass security restrictions.
(CVE-2015-2727)

Paul Bandha discovered a type confusion bug in the Indexed DB Manager. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a denial of service via application crash or execute arbitrary code with the priviliges of the user invoking Firefox. (CVE-2015-2728)

Holger Fuhrmannek discovered an out-of-bounds read in Web Audio. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to obtain sensitive information. (CVE-2015-2729)

Watson Ladd discovered that NSS incorrectly handled Elliptical Curve Cryptography (ECC) multiplication. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to spoof ECDSA signatures. (CVE-2015-2730)

A use-after-free was discovered when a Content Policy modifies the DOM to remove a DOM object. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a denial of service via application crash or execute arbitrary code with the priviliges of the user invoking Firefox. (CVE-2015-2731)

Ronald Crane discovered multiple security vulnerabilities.
If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service via application crash, or execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking Firefox. (CVE-2015-2734, CVE-2015-2735, CVE-2015-2736, CVE-2015-2737, CVE-2015-2738, CVE-2015-2739, CVE-2015-2740)

David Keeler discovered that key pinning checks can be skipped when an overridable certificate error occurs. This allows a user to manually override an error for a fake certificate, but cannot be exploited on its own.
(CVE-2015-2741)

Jonas Jenwald discovered that some internal workers were incorrectly executed with a high privilege. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this in combination with another security vulnerability, to execute arbitrary code in a privileged scope. (CVE-2015-2743)

Matthew Green discovered a DHE key processing issue in NSS where a MITM could force a server to downgrade TLS connections to 512-bit export-grade cryptography. An attacker could potentially exploit this to impersonate the server. (CVE-2015-4000).

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

The version of Firefox is prior to 39.0 and is affected by multiple vulnerabilities : 

 - A security downgrade vulnerability exists due to a flaw in Network Security Services (NSS). When a client allows for a ECDHE_ECDSA exchange, but the server does not send a ServerKeyExchange message, the the NSS client will take the EC key from the ECDSA certificate. A remote attacker can exploit this to silently downgrade the exchange to a non-forward secret mixed-ECDH exchange. (CVE-2015-2721) 
 - Multiple user-after-free errors exist when using an XMLHttpRequest object in concert with either shared or dedicated workers. A remote attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service condition. (CVE-2015-2722, CVE-2015-2733) 
 - Multiple memory corruption issues exist that allow an attacker to cause a denial of service condition or potentially execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-2724, CVE-2015-2725) 
 - A security bypass vulnerability exists due to a failure to preserve context restrictions. A remote attacker can exploit this, via a crafted web site that is accessed with unspecified mouse and keyboard actions, to read arbitrary files or execute arbitrary JavaScript code. (CVE-2015-2727) 
 - A type confusion flaw exists in the Indexed Database Manager's handling of IDBDatabase. A remote attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service condition or to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-2728) 
 - An out-of-bounds read flaw exists in the 'AudioParamTimeline::AudioNodeInputValue()' function when computing oscillator rending ranges. An attacker can exploit this to disclose the contents of four bytes of memory or cause a denial of service condition. (CVE-2015-2729) 
 - A signature spoofing vulnerability exists due to a flaw in Network Security Services (NSS) in its Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) signature validation. A remote attacker can exploit this to forge signatures. (CVE-2015-2730) 
 - A use-after-free error exists in the 'CSPService::ShouldLoad()' function when modifying the Document Object Model to remove a DOM object. An attacker can exploit this to dereference already freed memory, potentially resulting in the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-2731) 
 - An uninitialized memory use issue exists in the 'CairoTextureClientD3D9::BorrowDrawTarget()' function, the '::d3d11::SetBufferData()' function, and the 'YCbCrImageDataDeserializer::ToDataSourceSurface()' function. The impact is unspecified. (CVE-2015-2734, CVE-2015-2737, CVE-2015-2738) 
 - A memory corruption issue exists in the 'nsZipArchive::GetDataOffset()' function due to improper string length checks. An attacker can exploit this, via a crafted ZIP archive, to potentially execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-2735) 
 - A memory corruption issue exists in the 'nsZipArchive::BuildFileList()' function due to improper validation of user-supplied input. An attacker can exploit this, via a crafted ZIP archive, to potentially execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-2736) 
 - An unspecified memory corruption issue exists in the 'ArrayBufferBuilder::append()' function due to improper validation of user-supplied input. An attacker can exploit this to potentially execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-2739) 
 - A buffer overflow condition exists in the 'nsXMLHttpRequest::AppendToResponseText()' function due to improper validation of user-supplied input. An attacker can exploit this to potentially execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-2740) 
 - A security bypass vulnerability exists due to a flaw in certificate pinning checks. Key pinning is not enforced upon encountering an X.509 certificate problem that generates a user dialog. A man-in-the-middle attacker can exploit this to bypass intended access restrictions. (CVE-2015-2741) 
 - A privilege escalation vulnerability exists in the PDF viewer (PDF.js) due to internal workers being executed insecurely. An attacker can exploit this, by leveraging a Same Origin Policy bypass, to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-2743) 
 - A man-in-the-middle vulnerability, known as Logjam, exists due to a flaw in the SSL/TLS protocol. A remote attacker can exploit this flaw to downgrade connections using ephemeral Diffie-Hellman key exchange to 512-bit export-grade cryptography. (CVE-2015-4000)
