It depends on the strength of the master password.

There are programs available to crack passwords, a common method used is either brute force or dictionary attacks. If you have a weak master password, such as a word, password cracking applications will probably be able to crack the master password, giving somebody access to your other passwords. If you use a strong master password that contains a mixture of upper and lower case letters, numbers and other characters, it will be very difficult to crack, and will likely take a prohibitively long time.

Firefox uses Triple-DES encryption, if you use a strong master password it will be very difficult to crack. As I mentioned before, the strength of your master password is important.
