This bug was fixed in the package firefox - 15.0+build1-0ubuntu0.11.10.1
---------------
firefox (15.0+build1-0ubuntu0.11.10.1) oneiric-security; urgency=low
* New upstream stable release (FIREFOX_15_0_BUILD1)
- see LP: #1041620 for USN information
* Update globalmenu-extension to 3.4
+ Drop the edit UI workarounds
+ Fixes for LP: #1035305 - Crash when switching apps back to Firefox
with Firebug installed
- Keep the menu we export in sync with the document tree all of the
time, rather than only when the menus are on screen. The HUD likes to
open submenus without opening any of its ancestors, which can result in
us handling events on menu nodes that are no longer in a document
if an ancestor responds to a bubbled-up event by removing its
children
- Ensure we always null check the result of nsIDocument::GetCurrentDoc
+ When tearing down a menu, make sure that we empty out our DbusmenuMenuitem
in case the parent reuses that item for another menu. Fixes a memory leak
and an issue where Firebug menu items are duplicated indefinitely each
time a menu is opened
+ Fixes for LP: #1025011 - HUD search crashes Firefox when Firebug
is installed
- Provide our own binding for menupopup nodes which derives from the
default binding and makes the "state" property work as if there
were a frame
- Make all menu nodes reference counted, and hold a strong ref when
dispatching events, in case the event results in the removal of menu
nodes
+ Fix LP: #813775 - Hitting an assertion in dbusmenu
+ Fix LP: #861565 - No buttons in the "Show All Bookmarks" dialog
+ Fix LP: #775305 - An empty menu appears when FFChrome is installed
+ Add a small delay when opening the menu with the keyboard, so that
the additional items are added before the menu appears. Fixes an
issue where keyboard focus isn't on the first item when opening the
history menu with the keyboard
* Add Acholi to the locale blacklist
* Separate the package name from the application name in various places.
This enables us to change the package name without having to modify the
application or packaging (eg, to allow us to provide official branded
versions of Firefox ESR using the package name "firefox-esr")

Bug description:
When switching apps (with alt-tab, or clicking the Launcher) *to*
Firefox, Firefox crashes.
This does not occur for a while after reboot. However, once the first
crash has happened, a restarted Firefox will reliably continue to
crash every time it is switched *to*. So, starting Firefox works;
restoring the previous session works; navigating around, choosing
different tabs, adding new tabs works. Switching away from Firefox
works. However, switching back to Firefox causes it to crash every
time.
A reboot cures the problem (until it starts again).
Crash report sent to Mozilla (about a zillion times) and should be
therefore attached to this bug by apport, but if not: https://crash-
stats.mozilla.com/report/index/bp-dbbaef36-287e-4e2b-85bd-4ef8e2120810
Disabling Firebug seems to have cured the problem.
[SRU justification]
Looking through Mozilla's crash database, we're currently responsible for
about 1500 crash reports per week (taking in to account the different
variations of this trace), second only to Flash

[Test case]
- Update Firefox, perform whatever steps were necessary to trigger the crash
before (this could be opening the HUD, opening the menus, switching focus to
Firefox or just starting it - this really depends on which way the wind is
blowing) and verify it doesn't crash
[Regression Potential]
- None, it's just a null pointer check and another small change to ensure
that menus are disposed of fully to avoid leaving duplicated (and orphaned)
entries in the Firebug menu
