Description:
Several vulnerabilities were reported in Opera. A remote user can conduct cross-domain scripting attacks. A remote user can obtain potentially sensitive information. A remote user can execute arbitrary code on the target user's system.
A remote user can exploit a CSS handling flaw to conduct cross-domain attacks and obtain information from a different domain. Isaac Dawson reported this vulnerability.
A remote user can create specially crafted HTML that, when loaded by the target user, will modify the size of the browser window and potentially spoof the page address.
A remote user can use reloads, redirects, and caching to execute arbitrary scripting code in the wrong security context. This can be exploited to modify the browser configuration and execute arbitrary code on the target user's system.
A remote user with knowledge of the address of a private video stream can exploit a flaw in the browser to obtain frames of the target video stream. Nirankush Panchbhai of Microsoft Vulnerability Research reported this vulnerability.
A remote user can exploit an error page flaw to execute arbitrary scripting code in the context of a different domain.
