Firefox backtrace after cash

Description of problem:
I visit a particular website, Firefox crashes (segmentation fault). Generally occurs when the page is loading. The website is password protected "Blackboard learning environment" that many colleges use to provide study material so it's not possible to share the link per say as authentication is required.

I have a feeling this is Java related, thus far with the IceTea plugin disabled I cannot trigger the crash. Further the page may have little 'hidden' applets, although I have triggered the crash when attempting to upload a file using a Java open dialog box as well.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
(see rpm query below)


How reproducible:
1. Visit a website with an unknown applet(s) as described above
  
Actual results:
Firefox crashes when Java is enabled

Expected results:
Firefox operates per normal

Additional info:

1. Attached backtrace from firefox -g with debug packages installed

2. rpm -qa *xulrun* *firefox* *mozilla* *flash* *plugin*
