| Detailed Description |
A version of Opera web browser which is older than version 8.02 is detected as installed on the host. Opera is a Web browser, developed by Opera Software, for multiple operating systems. Opera versions prior to 8.02 are vulnerable to the following two security issues:
- Content-Disposition Header Download Dialog File Extension Spoofing Vulnerability
- Image Dragging Cross-Domain Scripting and File Retrieval Vulnerability
A remote attacker could construct a hostile Web site that contains a malicious script exploiting these vulnerabilities, which would be executed in the victim's Web browser within the security context of the hosting site, once the malicious link is clicked.
* Note: This check requires an account with administrative privileges which can log into the host to scan. Absence of these condition will result in the check not being performed and a False Negative for all vulnerable hosts.
