Multiple vulnerabilities were discovered in Opera:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Vitaly McLain reported a heap-based buffer overflow when processing
|
|
host names in file:// URLs (CVE-2008-5178).</li>
|
|
<li>Alexios Fakos reported a vulnerability in the HTML parsing engine
|
|
when processing web pages that trigger an invalid pointer calculation
|
|
and heap corruption (CVE-2008-5679).</li>
|
|
<li>Red XIII reported that certain text-area contents can be
|
|
manipulated to cause a buffer overlow (CVE-2008-5680).</li>
|
|
<li>David Bloom discovered that unspecified "scripted URLs" are not
|
|
blocked during the feed preview (CVE-2008-5681).</li>
|
|
<li>Robert Swiecki of the Google Security Team reported a Cross-site
|
|
scripting vulnerability (CVE-2008-5682).</li>
|
|
<li>An unspecified vulnerability reveals random data
|
|
(CVE-2008-5683).</li>
|
|
<li>Tavis Ormandy of the Google Security Team reported a vulnerability
|
|
when processing JPEG images that may corrupt memory
|
|
(CVE-2009-0914).</li>
|
|
</ul>

<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted JPEG
|
|
image to cause a Denial of Service or execute arbitrary code, to
|
|
process an overly long file:// URL or to open a specially crafted web
|
|
page to execute arbitrary code. He could also read existing
|
|
subscriptions and force subscriptions to arbitrary feed URLs, as well
|
|
as inject arbitrary web script or HTML via built-in XSLT templates.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All Opera users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-client/opera-9.64"</code>
