Opera web browser in versions <= 9.10 allows unrestricted script access to its configuration page, opera:config, allowing an attacker to change settings and potentially execute arbitrary code.

Module Ranking and Traits


Module Ranking:

  • excellent: The exploit will never crash the service. This is the case for SQL Injection, CMD execution, RFI, LFI, etc. No typical memory corruption exploits should be given this ranking unless there are extraordinary circumstances. More information about ranking can be found here.
