Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

The vulnerability in Opera 7.x up to version 7.54 allows remote attackers to spoof arbitrary web sites by injecting content from one window into a target window whose name is known but resides in a different domain, as demonstrated using a pop-up window on a trusted web site, aka the 'window injection' vulnerability.

Risk Assessment

The risk involves the possibility of deceiving the user, who may believe they are browsing a trusted site while the content is actually controlled by the attacker, potentially leading to theft of credentials or other sensitive information.

Recommendation

It is recommended to immediately update Opera browser to a version later than 7.54, which includes a fix for this vulnerability. If an update is not possible, consider using a different, supported browser.
