Opera < 11.62 Multiple Vulnerabilities

medium Nessus Plugin ID 58583

Language:

Synopsis

The remote host contains a web browser that is potentially affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of Opera installed on the remote Windows host is earlier than 11.62 and is, therefore, potentially affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

- The download dialog box can be displayed in a very small window thus, tricking a user into not realizing it is open. Certain keyboard entries after this can allow a user to take unintended actions. (Issue #1010)

- The download dialog box can be hidden behind certain page content thus, tricking a user into not realizing it is open. Certain user actions after this can allow a user to take unintended actions. (Issue #1011)

- Improper restrictions after the use of 'history.pushState' and 'history.replaceState' can allow information disclosure of state data when cross- domain frames are in use. (Issue #1012)

- Dialog boxes can cause the application to display an incorrect address in the URL bar. (Issue #1013)

- Certain webpage reloading timing issues can cause the application to display incorrect information in the URL bar. (Issue #1014)

Solution

Upgrade to Opera 11.62 or later.
