The signature includes references to gfx/layers/ files, so could be related to hardware acceleration.

  • Firefox 47.0.1 Crash Report [@ mozilla::layers::Layer::SnapTransformTranslation ]

You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

  • Options/Preferences -> Advanced -> General -> Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"

You need to close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.

You can check if there is an update for your graphics display driver and check for hardware acceleration related issues.

Try to disable color management to test if it is caused by a problem with color management. You can set the gfx.color_management.mode pref to 0 on the about:config page to disable Color Management. You need to close and restart Firefox to make the change effective. See:

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.
