Have you first checked for a corrupt Firefox profile?

If you could close all instances of Firefox and the in Terminal and type:

firefox -ProfileManager

You should now see the Profile Manager window

Then click on the 'Create Profile...' button to start the 'Create Profile Wizard'. Click 'Next' and enter a descriptive name for the new profile. Click Finish to have Firefox create the new profile. You should now be taken back to the Profile Manager and the newly created profile should be listed. Select it and click 'Start Firefox'.

Could you please tell me if you still have the same crash?

Note: you can go back to your own profile by starting Firefox using the command firefox -ProfileManager again, selecting your own profile, and clicking on 'Start Firefox'.
