(Opera: RSA signature forgery)

    Opera makes use of OpenSSL, which fails to correctly verify PKCS #1
    v1.5 RSA signatures signed by a key with exponent 3. Some CAs in
    Opera's list of trusted signers are using root certificates with
    exponent 3.
  
Impact :

    An attacker could forge certificates which will appear valid and signed
    by a trusted CA.
  
Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time."
