OpenOffice.org is an office productivity suite, including word
|
|
processing, spreadsheet, presentation, data charting, formula editing
|
|
and file conversion facilities. libcurl, which is included in
|
|
OpenOffice.org, is a free and easy-to-use client-side library for
|
|
transferring files with URL syntaxes, supporting numerous protocols.

<p>
|
|
OpenOffice.org includes libcurl code. This libcurl code is
|
|
vulnerable to a heap overflow when it tries to parse a URL that exceeds
|
|
a 256-byte limit (GLSA 200512-09).
|

|
<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
An attacker could entice a user to call a specially crafted URL
|
|
with OpenOffice.org, potentially resulting in the execution of
|
|
arbitrary code with the rights of the user running the application.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.
