CVE-2011-2624: Opera before 11.50 allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application hang) vi...

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old Opera browser denial-of-service issue. A specially crafted large table could make Opera before 11.50 hang when print preview is used. The likely business impact is interruption to a user session, not data theft or system takeover based on the provided sources. Exposure is mainly legacy Opera desktop installations before 11.50 on Windows, Unix, or Mac. Modern enterprise exposure is likely limited unless old browsers remain on kiosks, lab systems, VMs, or unmanaged endpoints. Treat this as low urgency unless the organization still runs legacy Opera. If found, remove or upgrade it during normal endpoint hygiene because the issue affects availability and requires user interaction. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Opera installations to version 11.50 or later where still present.; Retire unsupported legacy Opera browsers from managed endpoints.; Avoid print previewing untrusted pages on vulnerable Opera versions until upgraded..
