Stacktrace is identical to bug #366589.  Marking as a duplicate.

This looks like it is a problem within gecko (the mozilla rendering engine).  Are you able to run Firefox / Epiphany?

Please try reinstalling firefox.

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug.
This trace indicates that Mozilla (which was being used by the program) was responsible for the crash, or alternatively that the program was compiled against a different version of Mozilla. Make sure the program was built against the most recent mozilla (from the Ubuntu repositories), and if you can duplicate the crash in mozilla itself, report the bug to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/
