CVE-2006-6970
Opera 9.10 Final allows remote attackers to bypass the Fraud Protection mechanism by adding certain characters to the end of a domain name, as demonstrated by the "." and "/" characters, which is not caught by the blacklist filter.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.42%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
