Why are they linking to private bugs?

  Yeah I thought I was going to get to read up about the bug; wasn't expecting an access denied since it's linked from their public advisory page.

  It's not a private bug, it's a security bug. That means that anyone that is trusted by Mozilla to access this kind of bug, or that is explicitly added to the list of people allowed to access this bug can see it.

  Mozilla often opens up security bugs after a while (when they feel like everybody's been patched), so that can be useful when looking at the advisory page in the future. Sometimes things end up forgotten, though, since that seems to be a very manual process.
