Opera Software has issued an update for its eponymous browser. There was an “extremely severe” flaw in the code, as described here:

Multiple asynchronous calls to a script that modifies the document contents can cause Opera to reference an uninitialized value, which may lead to a crash. To inject code, additional techniques will have to be employed.

Opera has been updated to version 10.53, and users can download a new version here.
