Original advisory details:

 Multiple security issues were discovered 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, denial of service via successive FTP authorization prompts or modal
 alerts, trick the user with confusing permission request prompts, obtain
 sensitive information, conduct social engineering attacks, or execute
 arbitrary code. (CVE-2019-9788, CVE-2019-9789, CVE-2019-9790,
 CVE-2019-9791, CVE-2019-9792, CVE-2019-9795, CVE-2019-9796, CVE-2019-9797,
 CVE-2019-9799, CVE-2019-9802, CVE-2019-9805, CVE-2019-9806, CVE-2019-9807,
 CVE-2019-9808, CVE-2019-9809)
 
 A mechanism was discovered that removes some bounds checking for string,
 array, or typed array accesses if Spectre mitigations have been disabled.
 If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website with
 Spectre mitigations disabled, an attacker could potentially exploit this
 to cause a denial of service, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2019-9793)
 
 It was discovered that Upgrade-Insecure-Requests was incorrectly enforced
 for same-origin navigation. An attacker could potentially exploit this to
 conduct man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks. (CVE-2019-9803)

Update instructions:

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:

Ubuntu 14.04 LTS:
