Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Opera version 9.52

Description The issue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service due to resource consumption. This is achieved through JavaScript code that contains an infinite loop, which creates IFRAME elements for invalid news:// or nntp:// URIs.

Recommendations For Opera version 9.52, consider disabling JavaScript execution of infinite loops that create IFRAME elements until a patch is available. Restrict access to news:// and nntp:// URIs to minimize the risk of exploitation.
