Description

The version of Opera installed on the remote host is earlier than
12.01 and is, therefore, reportedly affected by multiple issues :

– An error exists in the handling of certain URLs that
can lead to memory corruption and possible code
execution. (1016)

– Errors exist in the handling of DOM elements and
certain HTML characters that can lead to cross-site
scripting. (1025, 1026)

– Download dialog boxes can be made small enough that
users may not realize they are accepting a download
and further, executing such a download. (1027)

– An attacker could cause an application crash by tricking
a user into connecting to a malicious site, as
demonstrated by the Lenovo ‘Shop Now’ page.
