Adding to existing GLSA draft.
CVE-2013-1639 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2013-1639): Opera before 12.13 does not send CORS preflight requests in all required cases, which allows remote attackers to bypass a CSRF protection mechanism via a crafted web site that triggers a CORS request. CVE-2013-1638 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2013-1638): Opera before 12.13 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted clipPaths in an SVG document. CVE-2013-1637 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2013-1637): Opera before 12.13 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via vectors involving DOM events. CVE-2013-1618 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2013-1618): The TLS implementation in Opera before 12.13 does not properly consider timing side-channel attacks on a MAC check operation during the processing of malformed CBC padding, which allows remote attackers to conduct distinguishing attacks and plaintext-recovery attacks via statistical analysis of timing data for crafted packets, a related issue to CVE-2013-0169.
