Opera Torrent File Handling Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
http://secunia.com/advisories/25278/
QUOTE: A vulnerability has been reported in Opera, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system. The vulnerability is caused due to an error in the handling of torrent files and can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow when a user right-clicks a malicious torrent entry in the transfer manager. Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code. The vulnerability is reported in versions prior to 9.21 for Windows.
