Title: Opera Web Browser Dialog Box Origin Spoofing Vulnerability
Severity: MODERATE
Description:
Opera Web Browser is prone to a dialog box origin spoofing vulnerability. This issue may allow a remote attacker to carry out phishing style attacks.
Reportedly, the vulnerability presents itself as dialog boxes from inactive windows may appear in other active windows.
An attacker can exploit this issue by creating a malicious Web site and enticing a user to follow a link to the site. If the user follows the link, the attacker can then trigger this issue by somehow enticing a user to follow another link to a trusted site in a new window. The attacker can then display a spoofed dialog box to the user that seemingly originates from the trusted site. Typically this dialog box would mimic the legitimate site.
An attacker may exploit this vulnerability to spoof an interface of a trusted web site. This vulnerability may aid in phishing style attacks.
