Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
Unspecified vulnerability in Opera before 12.15 has unknown impact and attack vectors, related to a "moderately severe issue."

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · low confidence
Developing — this CVE was published recently and its authoritative NVD entry is still being established, so we're holding a technical summary until the source data settles rather than publish something unreliable. Re-checking after 2026-08-05.

Affected products & versions What the vendor confirmedThe version ranges the vendor confirmed as vulnerable. If your version sits inside a range here, treat yourself as exposed until you have upgraded.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.

Upgrade available Upgrade to a release after 12.14
Recommended fix High confidence

Opera 12.15 or later

  1. 1. Check current Opera version by opening Opera and navigating to Help > About Opera
  2. 2. If the version shown is earlier than 12.15, download Opera 12.15 or a later stable version from the official Opera website (www.opera.com)
  3. 3. Install the downloaded version, replacing the vulnerable installation
  4. 4. Restart the browser after installation completes
Caveat Minimal - this is a minor version update within the Opera 12.x series; however, note that Opera 12.x uses the Presto engine which was later replaced in Opera 15+
