    Angry Zero day bugs for Opera too

    http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/03...vulnerability/
    http://secunia.com/advisories/38820/
    Criticality level Highly critical
    Impact System access
    Where From remote

    Description
    Marcin Ressel has discovered a vulnerability in Opera, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.

    The vulnerability is caused due to an error when processing HTTP responses having a malformed "Content-Length" header. This can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow via an overly large 64-bit "Content-Length" value, having the higher 32-bit part negative.

    Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code.

    The vulnerability is confirmed in version 10.50 for Windows. Other versions may also be affected.

    Solution
    Do not browse untrusted websites or follow untrusted links.

    This is actually a compliment in a twisted way.

    It's a sign of success. Welcome to the big time Opera. People are now trying to exploit your creation and are announcing it to the world. Welcome, welcome...

    Avant has the same flaws IE has... as it's IE based. So no, that won't work either, I'm afraid.

    Opera rocks. I've been using this for 3 yrs and love all the features. Recent, updates are worse. I hope that Opera makes some good changes. Their Opera Unite is awesome and hope the browser stays with its promise.
