Opera < 9.20 Multiple Vulnerabilities

medium Nessus Plugin ID 25036

Synopsis

The remote host contains a web browser that is susceptible to multiple issues.

Description

The version of Opera installed on the remote host reportedly may allow a remote attacker to bypass cross-site scripting filters because it renders a web page without a defined charset with the charset of the parent page.

In addition, its FTP implementation can be leveraged by remote attackers to force the client to connect to arbitrary servers via FTP PASV responses.

Solution

Upgrade to Opera version 9.20 or later.
