high Nessus Plugin ID 42291

Synopsis

The remote host contains a web browser that is affected by multiple issues.

Description

- 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.
