Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Opera versions prior to 10.60

Description The issue allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted web page. A design error in the "Download" dialog can be exploited to cause a file to be downloaded and executed if a user is tricked into double-clicking a link on a specially crafted page.

Recommendations For Opera versions prior to 10.60, update to version 10.60 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider avoiding double-clicking on links from untrusted sources to minimize the risk of exploitation. Restrict access to potentially malicious web pages to prevent the download and execution of arbitrary code.
