Affected packages
=================
——————————————————————-
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
——————————————————————-
1 www-client/opera < 12.13_p1734 >= 12.13_p1734
Description
===========
Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Opera. Please review
the CVE identifiers referenced below for details.
Impact
======
A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted web
page using Opera, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code
with the privileges of the process or a Denial of Service condition.
Furthermore, a remote attacker may be able to obtain sensitive
information, conduct Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks, or bypass
security restrictions.
A local attacker may be able to obtain sensitive information.
Workaround
==========
There is no known workaround at this time.

# emerge –sync
# emerge –ask –oneshot –verbose “>=www-client/opera-12.13_p1734”
