    <p>
    OpenOffice.org is an open source office productivity suite, including
    word processing, spreadsheet, presentation, drawing, data charting,
    formula editing, and file conversion facilities.

    iDefense Labs reported multiple vulnerabilities in OpenOffice.org:
    </p>
    <ul>
    <li>
    multiple heap-based buffer overflows when parsing the "Attribute" and
    "Font" Description records of Quattro Pro (QPRO) files
    (CVE-2007-5745),
    </li>
    <li>
    an integer overflow when parsing the EMR_STRETCHBLT record of an EMF
    file, resulting in a heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-2007-5746),
    </li>
    <li>
    an integer underflow when parsing Quattro Pro (QPRO) files, resulting
    in an excessive loop and a stack-based buffer overflow
    (CVE-2007-5747),
    </li>
    <li>
    and a heap-based buffer overflow when parsing the
    "DocumentSummaryInformation" stream in an OLE file (CVE-2008-0320).
    </li>
    </ul>
    <p>
    Furthermore, Will Drewry (Google Security) reported vulnerabilities in
    the memory management of the International Components for Unicode
    (CVE-2007-4770, CVE-2007-4771), which was resolved with GLSA 200803-20.
    However, the binary version of OpenOffice.org uses an internal copy of
    said library.

  <impact type="normal">
    <p>
    A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted
    document, possibly resulting in the remote execution of arbitrary code
    with the privileges of the user running OpenOffice.org.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>
    There is no known workaround at this time.
    </p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>
    All OpenOffice.org users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=app-office/openoffice-2.4.0"</code>
    <p>
    All OpenOffice.org binary users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=app-office/openoffice-bin-2.4.0"</code>
  </resolution>
