Opera will release a patch as soon as possible to fix desktop browser vulnerabilities

On March 10th, according to foreign media reports, Opera Software confirmed that it is developing a patch to fix a serious security vulnerability in its Opera desktop browser software. The Norwegian browser manufacturer did not provide a timetable for fixing this security hole. However, an Opera spokesperson said that the company will release this patch as soon as possible.

Danish security vulnerability tracking vendor Secunia listed this security vulnerability as a "very serious" security vulnerability. This is the second most serious security vulnerability among the five security vulnerability levels. Attackers use this security hole to destroy memory, cause Opera browser to crash, and theoretically execute attack code.

According to the researchers who published the proof-of-concept attack code on the Internet last week, this security flaw affects Opera 10 and the latest version of Opera 10.50 browser software that was released last week.

Opera once denied Secunia's initial report on the security flaw, saying that the software flaw is not a security issue, because the attacker can only cause the browser to crash and cannot control the user's PC. At the prompt of Secunia and after further investigation, Opera admitted that the security hole could be exploited.

Opera spokesman Thomas Ford said that in a 64-bit environment, this security hole still caused the browser to crash. However, in a 32-bit environment, this vulnerability can be used to move memory from one location to another without causing software crashes. Ford downplayed this danger and said that any code that exploits this security hole may not be sufficient to reliably threaten users.

Ford said that because this issue is considered a security issue, even if the security vulnerability is still theoretical, we are ready to provide a patch and are testing the patch. We plan to release an Opera software update soon.
