RedHat has issued an advisory on February 19:
https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2013-0271.html

nspr and nss also need to be updated.  They are in SVN but not built yet.

nss 3.14.3 also fixes a security issue, CVE-2013-1620:

Everything is now built and this is ready for QA.

Advisory:
========================

Updated firefox packages fix security vulnerabilities:

The Chrome Object Wrapper (COW) and System Only Wrapper (SOW) implementations
in Mozilla Firefox before 19.0, Firefox ESR 17.x before 17.0.3, Thunderbird
before 17.0.3, Thunderbird ESR 17.x before 17.0.3, and SeaMonkey before 2.16
do not prevent modifications to a prototype, which allows remote attackers to
obtain sensitive information from chrome objects or possibly execute arbitrary
JavaScript code with chrome privileges via a crafted web site (CVE-2013-0773).

Mozilla Firefox before 19.0, Firefox ESR 17.x before 17.0.3, Thunderbird
before 17.0.3, Thunderbird ESR 17.x before 17.0.3, and SeaMonkey before 2.16
do not prevent JavaScript workers from reading the browser-profile directory
name, which has unspecified impact and remote attack vectors (CVE-2013-0774).

Several flaws were found in the processing of malformed web content. A
web page containing malicious content could cause Firefox to crash or,
potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user
running Firefox (CVE-2013-0775, CVE-2013-0780, CVE-2013-0782,
CVE-2013-0783).

It was found that, after canceling a proxy server's authentication
prompt, the address bar continued to show the requested site's address. An
attacker could use this flaw to conduct phishing attacks by tricking a
user into believing they are viewing a trusted site (CVE-2013-0776).

The TLS implementation in Mozilla Network Security Services (NSS) does not
properly consider timing side-channel attacks on a noncompliant MAC check
operation during the processing of malformed CBC padding, which allows remote
attackers to conduct distinguishing attacks and plaintext-recovery attacks
via statistical analysis of timing data for crafted packets (CVE-2013-1620).
