Opera 7.0 Security Holes ... Fixed

Posted by timothy on Tuesday February 4, 2003 @01:06PM from the fat-lady dept.

An anonymous reader writes "GreyMagic has issued five new security advisories for the recently-released Opera 7.0. They affect the security model, the javascript console, images, the history and the error log (allowing access to the history). A new version will be released within 24 hours to fix the holes, according to an article at The Register." Update: 02/05 02:01 GMT by T : An anonymous reader writes "Opera Software have just released Opera 7.01 for Windows. This version fixes the recently discovered security holes less than 24 hours after they were discovered - a very impressive turnaround! The release is currently only available on Opera's FTP site. It can be downloaded with Java (12.9Mb) or without (3.3Mb)."

I might not buy a web browser, but I would buy the creating apps with Mozilla book from O'Reilly!
