CVE-2012-6472

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Opera versions prior to 12.12

Description The issue allows local users to obtain sensitive information by reading cache, password, or configuration files due to weak permissions for the profile directory. It may also be possible for local users to gain privileges by modifying or overwriting configuration files.

Recommendations For Opera versions prior to 12.12, update to version 12.12 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the profile directory to minimize the risk of exploitation.
