Opera has introduced Paste Protect, a feature that blocks ClickFix-style clipboard injection attacks which trick users into copying and executing malicious commands. The mechanism uses Hijack protection and a new Injection protection component to scan and block suspicious copy operations across Windows, macOS, and Linux, shows a warning and partial script preview, supports trusted-site allow-lists, and is enabled by default; the piece advises users to avoid running commands they do not understand.
