Odyssey vulnerable to URL spoofing trick

An article about the exploit is here:
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2015/05/ ... ri_address_spoofing_vuln/

And you can prove that Odyssey is vulnerable using this:
http://www.deusen.co.uk/items/iwhere.9500182225526788/
(Click on "Go", and you will see a fake Daily Mail URL in the address bar.)


In short: Odyssey's web engine needs updating to something recent.

If you click the link "Broadband routers: SOHOpeless and vendors don't care" on the article page, it becomes apparent that if your browser doesn't get you in trouble then your router will
However, that's no reason not to update the browser and get some protection.

@ChrisH

No problem in AWeb

/me runs

@broadblues

Likewise fine in NetSurf

/hides

@Chris, @broadblues
You's guys aren't very helpful as neither of those browsers are based upon WebKit (which is used by Safari, the browser used for the URL spoofing trick).

edit: I'm sure that AWeb & NetSurf have lots of security vulnerabilities... if they were popular enough for anyone to look for them :) . Actually, isn't AWeb switching to the KHTML engine? Maybe someone is looking for vulnerabilites afterall!
