CVE-2010-4045: XSS

First published: Thu Oct 21 2010(Updated: )

Opera before 10.63 does not properly restrict web script in unspecified circumstances involving reloads and redirects, which allows remote attackers to spoof the Address Bar, conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks, and possibly execute arbitrary code by leveraging the ability of a script to interact with a web page from (1) a different domain or (2) a different security context.
