In Brief Opera today released an update to its latest browser software designed to fix potentially serious security vulnerabilities that became public yesterday.

Opera 7.01, available for download from Opera's Web site, addresses the five security vulnerabilities reported to Opera by Israeli security firm GreyMagic last Friday. A commendably quick fix then for a problem that comes just days after Opera 7 was first released.

GreyMagic's detailed advisories can be found here. Our story yesterday adds some context to the issue. ®
