    <p>
    Mozilla discovered that Opera does not handle input to file form fields
    properly, allowing scripts to manipulate the file path (CVE-2008-1080).
    Max Leonov found out that image comments might be treated as scripts,
    and run within the wrong security context (CVE-2008-1081). Arnaud
    reported that a wrong representation of DOM attribute values of
    imported XML documents allows them to bypass sanitization filters
    (CVE-2008-1082).
    </p>
  </description>
  <impact type="normal">
    <p>
    A remote attacker could entice a user to upload a file with a known
    path by entering text into a specially crafted form, to execute scripts
    outside intended security boundaries and conduct Cross-Site Scripting
    attacks.
    </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 &quot;&gt;=www-client/opera-9.26&quot;</code>
  </resolution>
