Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Opera version 9.2
Description The issue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, resulting in CPU consumption and application crash, via a malformed torrent file. It is worth noting that the original disclosure refers to this as a memory leak, although this classification is not certain.
Recommendations For Opera version 9.2, consider avoiding the use of malformed torrent files to prevent CPU consumption and application crash. As a temporary workaround, restrict the use of the BitTorrent implementation until a fix is available.
