Synopsis

The remote host is vulnerable to multiple attack vectors.

Description

The version of Opera installed on the remote host is earlier than 10.01. Such versions are potentially affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

- Specially crafted domain names can cause a memory corruption in Opera, which may lead to a crash or possibly remote code execution. (938)

- Opera may allow scripts to run on the feed subscription page, thereby gaining access to the feeds object. (939)

Solution

Upgrade to Opera 10.01 or later.
