    descriptionThe version of Opera installed on the remote host is earlier than 12.12 and is, therefore, reportedly affected by the following vulnerabilities : - An error exists related to GIF image file handling that can allow heap memory corruption and can lead to application crashes or arbitrary code execution. (1038) - An error exists related to URL handling and the address bar that can allow rapid, repeated web requests to cause the incorrect URL to be displayed. (1040)
