Opera 10.10 closes "extremely severe" hole

With version 10.10 (Opera Unite) of its browser, Opera has fixed a vulnerability which can potentially be exploited to compromise systems. The flaw that causes the vulnerability has been known for about six months and has already been fixed in Chrome, Firefox and SeaMonkey. K-Meleon 1.5.x and the KDE (4.3.3) libraries are also said to contain the bug, which allows specially crafted web pages to write arbitrary code to the heap and execute it.
