More information:

Multiple security issues have been found in the Mozilla Firefox web browser: Multiple memory safety errors, use-after-frees, buffer overflows and other implementation errors may lead to the execution of arbitrary code, information disclosure or denial of service.

For Debian 7 Wheezy, these problems have been fixed in version 45.9.0esr-1~deb7u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your firefox-esr packages.
