Synopsis
The remote FreeBSD host is missing one or more security-related updates.Description
An advisory from Opera reports :If a user has configured Opera to use an external newsgroup client or e-mail application, specially crafted Web pages can cause Opera to run that application incorrectly. In some cases this can lead to execution of arbitrary code.
When accessing frames from different Websites, specially crafted scripts can bypass the same-origin policy, and overwrite functions from those frames. If scripts on the page then run those functions, this can cause the script of the attacker's choice to run in the context of the target Website.
Solution
Update the affected packages.See Also
