Hello lea,
this is what those mean:
Warn me when sites try to install add-ons :
With Add-ons you can enhance Firefox's experience. However, some add-ons can be malicious so that's why Firefox warns you before installing them by default.
Block reported attack sites :
Attack sites are those sites that can install malware on your computer. Normally, Firefox blocks that. The same goes for
Block reported web forgeries , where Phishing sites are being blocked. See How the phishing and malware protection in Firefox works.
Also, those information can be found in the Security and passwords settings KB article.
