Security expert Jos A. Vzquez has released details of a critical security hole in the Opera browser that can be exploited to inject malicious code. The hole is caused by a memory flaw when processing SVG content within framesets. The exploit is successful in 3 out of 10 cases with Opera 12. The Opera developers have so far not responded to the security expert’s release of the exploit. Opera will now have to respond in order to avoid exposing browser users to a virus threat for longer than is absolutely necessary.”]
