Release Notes

Opera 9.64 is a recommended security and stability upgrade, incorporating the
Opera Presto 2.1.1 user agent engine. Opera highly recommends all users to
upgrade to Opera 9.64 to take advantage of these improvements.

Release date: 03.03.2009

Changes and improvements since Opera 9.63
Security
* Fixed an issue where specially crafted JPEG images could be used to execute
  arbitrary code, as reported by Tavis Ormandy of the Google Security Team; see
  our advisory: http://www.opera.com/support/kb/view/926/
* Fixed an issue where plug-ins could be used to allow cross domain scripting,
  as reported by Adam Barth; details will be disclosed at a later date.
* Fixed a moderately severe issue; details will be disclosed at a later date.
* Added Untrusted Rootstore Capability:
  * Opera downloads only the detailed information about untrusted (blacklisted)
    certificates when they are encountered
  * If download fails for certificate information in the list, Opera considers
    any certificate matching the ID as untrusted
* Added version conditional fetching of certificate dependencies from an online
  repository
* Fixed a problem downloading the CRL (Certificate Revocation List)
* Fixed a problem that could cause SSL to deadlock in one state, hanging the
  connection
* Fixed a problem that could cause the incorrect calculation of Certificate IDs
* Implemented Extended Validation (EV) for cross-signed EV Root Certificates not
  shipped by default
* Implemented preshipping of the Entrust 2048 CA (Certificate Authority)
* Implemented Root Certificate fetching from an online repository when an
  intermediate matches a certificate in the repository
* Improved support for weak encryption when importing .p12 private certificates
* Prevented security information documents from being written to disk

Miscellaneous
* Fixed a problem which created separate feed notifications; Opera now groups
  them together
* Fixed a problem with the backspace key event in the Flash plug-in
* Fixed a problem with inline find when no text was entered, and the Enter key
  was pressed
* Fixed an instability error with the 64 bit Linux version
