high Nessus Plugin ID 64363

Language:

Synopsis

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

Description

The version of Opera installed on the remote host is earlier than 12.13 and is, therefore, reportedly affected by the following vulnerabilities :

- An error exists related to DOM manipulation that could lead to application crashes or arbitrary code execution. (1042)

- A use-after-free error exists related to SVG 'clipPaths' that could lead to memory corruption or arbitrary code execution. (1043)

- An error exists related to the TLS protocol, CBC mode encryption and response time. An attacker could obtain plaintext contents of encrypted traffic via timing attacks. (1044)

- The application could fail to make the proper 'pre- flight' Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) requests.
In some situations this error could aid an attacker in cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks. (1045)

- An unspecified, low severity issue exists that has an unspecified impact.

Solution

Upgrade to Opera 12.13 or later.
