It is unclear from the associated iDefense advisory:
http://labs.idefense.com/intelligence/vulnerabilities/display.php?id=53
5

CVE has assigned CVE-2007-2809 for the iDefense torrent issue.
As usual, the descriptions will be updated if any new information
becomes available.
I guess some clarification from Opera or iDefense would be helpful.

=======================================

CVE-2007-2809
Buffer overflow in the transfer manager in Opera before 9.21 for
Windows allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary
code via a crafted torrent file. NOTE: due to the lack of details,
it is not clear if this is the same issue as CVE-2007-2274.
