3. Problem description:

Mozilla Firefox is an open source Web browser.

Several flaws were found in the way Firefox processed certain malformed
JavaScript code. A web page containing malicious JavaScript code could
cause Firefox to crash or potentially execute arbitrary code as the user
running Firefox. (CVE-2007-3734, CVE-2007-3735, CVE-2007-3737, CVE-2007-3738)

Several content injection flaws were found in the way Firefox handled
certain JavaScript code. A web page containing malicious JavaScript code
could inject arbitrary content into other web pages. (CVE-2007-3736,
CVE-2007-3089)

A flaw was found in the way Firefox cached web pages on the local disk. A
malicious web page may be able to inject arbitrary HTML into a browsing
session if the user reloads a targeted site. (CVE-2007-3656)

Users of Firefox are advised to upgrade to these erratum packages, which
contain backported patches that correct these issues.
