|
|
Peter Zelezny discovered that the shell script used to launch
|
|
Opera parses shell commands that are enclosed within backticks in the
|
|
URL provided via the command line.

<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by enticing a
|
|
user to follow a specially crafted URL from a tool that uses Opera to
|
|
open URLs, resulting in the execution of arbitrary commands on the
|
|
targeted machine.
|
|
</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-8.51"</code>
