What is CVE-2012-6461?

The Opera Browser's implementation of X.509 certificate validation prior to version 12.10 contains a flaw that enables remote attackers to falsely indicate the success of revocation-status checks. By exploiting this vulnerability, an attacker can manipulate a scenario where a single checking service fails, leading to misleading perceptions of certificate validity and potentially endangering user security.
