    Ubuntu Security Notice USN-5816-2

    Ubuntu Security Notice 5816-2 - USN-5816-1 fixed vulnerabilities in
    Firefox. The update introduced several minor regressions. This update
    fixes the problem. Niklas Baumstark discovered that a compromised web
    child process of Firefox could disable web security opening restrictions, leading to a new child process being spawned within the file:// context.
    Tom Schuster discovered that Firefox was not performing a validation check
    on GTK drag data. An attacker could potentially exploits this to obtain sensitive information. Various other issues were also addressed.
