+    An error known as "a virtual function call on an invalid pointer" has
+    been discovered in the JavaScript engine (CVE-2007-4367). Furthermore,
+    iDefense Labs reported that an already-freed pointer may be still used
+    under unspecified circumstances in the BitTorrent support
+    (CVE-2007-3929). At last, minor other errors have been discovered,
+    relative to memory read protection (Opera Advisory 861) and URI
+    displays (CVE-2007-3142, CVE-2007-3819).

+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    A remote attacker could trigger the BitTorrent vulnerability by
+    enticing a user into starting a malicious BitTorrent download, and
+    execute arbitrary code through unspecified vectors. Additionally, a
+    specially crafted JavaScript may trigger the "virtual function"
+    vulnerability. The JavaScript engine can also access previously freed
+    but uncleaned memory. Finally, a user can be fooled with a too long
+    HTTP server name that does not fit the dialog box, or a URI containing
+    whitespaces.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time for all these
+    vulnerabilities.
+    </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-9.23&quot;</code>
+  </resolution>
