    execution of arbitrary code.

    <p>
    Michal Zalewski reported two vulnerabilities, memory corruption when
    adding news feed sources from a website (CVE-2008-1761) as well as when
    processing HTML CANVAS elements to use scaled images (CVE-2008-1762).
    Additionally, an unspecified weakness related to keyboard handling of
    password inputs has been reported (CVE-2008-1764).
    </p>
  </description>
  <impact type="normal">
    <p>
    A remote attacker could entice a user to visit a specially crafted web
    site or news feed and possibly execute arbitrary code with the
    privileges of the user running Opera.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>
    There is no known workaround at this time.
    </p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>
    All Opera users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=www-client/opera-9.27&quot;</code>
  </resolution>
