Description:
Secunia Research has discovered a vulnerability in Opera, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks against users.
The vulnerability is caused due to input not being sanitised, when Opera generates a temporary page for displaying a redirection when "Automatic redirection" is disabled (not default setting).

NOTE: A variant of this issue was first discovered in Opera versions 6.x and 7.x, but was reintroduced with the release of Opera 8.
