Description Marcus Meissner 2006-06-27 16:07:29 UTC 
This is public.

http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2006-3199

Opera 9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via an A tag with an href attribute with a URL containing a long hostname, which triggers an out-of-bounds operation.


Note that this will not stop the current update, it will just wait for a fix from Opera.

Fixed in Opera 9.01, updating autobuild

Looks like opera sw does not consider this a security issue therefore we shouldn't either. Just fix it for stable then.
