The only new feature included in the update is the support of the window.DOMStringList DOM object. The update also offers various minor improvements and further bug fixes.

French security services provider VUPEN appears to have succeeded in developing an exploit to inject and execute code and has therefore classified the problem as critical.
The problem is said to be caused by a bug in opera.dll when processing HTML files containing selected elements that have a large number of child elements.

The bug has been confirmed in Opera 11.00 and earlier and 10.63 and earlier for Windows 7 and XP SP3. At present there's no patch or update for the problem.
