Upgrade mozilla to version 36.0 or higher.

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Out-of-Bounds. The mozilla::layers::BufferTextureClient::AllocateForSurface function in Mozilla Firefox before 36.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds write of zero values, and application crash) via vectors that trigger use of DrawTarget and the Cairo library for image drawing.
