Hi,
I have the same problem with Ubuntu 14.04 64 bits (firefox 38.0+build3-0ubuntu0.14.04.1).
Does that mean that this big has existed since 2010 and is still unfixed 4 years later ? Sounds weird...

Title:
  color management broken in firefox

Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: firefox

  Firefox, using standard settings, renders a jpeg containing an
  embedded sRGB color profile with different colors than a jpeg lacking
  an embedded profile. Firefox's rendering of the jpeg containing a
  color profile is also different from that of other applications.

  How to reproduce:
  0) Make sure you have the default Firefox color-management settings:
  gfx.color_management.display_profile: (none)
  gfx.color_management.mode: 2
  gfx.color_management.rendering_intent: 0

  1) Load a jpeg having an embedded sRGB color profile in Firefox.
  2) Load a profile-stripped version of the same jpeg in another Firefox tab.
  3) Compare the images.

  Expected result: The two images should look exactly the same.
  Actual result:      The two images have different colors.

  You can also load the images in Gimp and compare to Firefox's
  rendering.

  You can achieve identical rendering of profiled and non-profiled
  images by turning off color management completely in Firefox.
