Opera is releasing a new feature that detects and blocks malicious clipboard content

ZDNet reports that Opera has added Paste Protect, a default‑enabled clipboard protection feature that detects and blocks malicious commands used in ‘ClickFix’ social‑engineering attacks (e.g., fake CAPTCHA fixes that prompt users to paste harmful terminal commands). The article explains how ClickFix evades conventional defenses, notes a recent spike in such attacks, and describes Opera's Injection Protection which warns users and allows site whitelisting.
