Official Description
Opera before 10.63 does not properly verify the origin of video content, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information by using a video stream as HTML5 canvas content.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2010-4046 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires some privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
From a weakness classification perspective (CWE-200): Information exposure vulnerabilities leak sensitive data to unauthorized actors.
