VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/15008/
CRITICAL:
Moderately critical
IMPACT:
Security Bypass
WHERE:
>From remote
SOFTWARE:
Opera 8.x

DESCRIPTION:
Secunia Research has discovered a vulnerability in Opera, which can
be exploited by malicious people to steal content or to perform
actions on other web sites with the privileges of the user.
Normally, it should not be possible for the XMLHttpRequest object to
access resources from outside the domain of which the object was
opened. However, due to insufficient validation of server side
redirects, it is possible to circumvent this restriction.
The vulnerability has been confirmed in version 8.0.
SOLUTION:
Update to version 8.01.
