Multiple heap-based buffer overflows in cppcanvas/source/mtfrenderer/emfplus.cxx in Go-oo 2.x and 3.x before 3.0.1, previously named ooo-build and related to OpenOffice.org (OOo), allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted EMF+ file, a similar issue to CVE-2008-2238.

This updates provides a new OpenOffice.org version 3.1.1. It holds security and bug fixes described as follow :

An integer underflow might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted records in the document table of a Word document, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-2009-0200).

A heap-based buffer overflow might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified records in a crafted Word document, related to table parsing (CVE-2009-0201).

A heap-based buffer overflow allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted EMF file (CVE-2009-2139).

Multiple heap-based buffer overflows allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted EMF+ file (CVE-2009-2140).

OpenOffice's xmlsec uses a bundled Libtool which might load .la file in the current working directory allowing local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse file. For enabling such vulnerability xmlsec has to use --enable-crypto_dl building flag however it does not, although the fix keeps protected against this threat whenever that flag had been enabled (CVE-2009-3736).

Further this update provides following bug fixes :

OpenOffice.org is not properly configure to use the xdg-email functionality of the FreeDesktop standard (#52195).

As the template desktop icons are not properly set, it's not presented under the context menu of applications like Dolphin (#56439).

The Firefox plugin which enables viewing of OpenOffice documents inside the browser was not enabled.

Addittionaly this update provides following bug fixes :

OpenOffice.org is not properly configure to use the xdg-email functionality of the FreeDesktop standard (#52195).

Template desktop icons are not properly set up then they are not presented under the context menu of applications like Dolphin (#56439).

libia_ora-gnome is added as suggest as long as that package is needed for a better look (#57385#c28).

It is enabled a fallback logic to properly select an OpenOffice.org style whenever one is set up but that is not installed (#57530#c1, #53284, #45133, #39043)

It is enabled the Firefox plugin for viewing OpenOffice.org documents inside browser.

Further packages were provided to supply OpenOffice.org. 3.1.1 dependencies.

This update provides the OpenOffice.org 3.0 major version and holds the security fixes for the following issues :

An integer underflow might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted records in the document table of a Word document leading to a heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-2009-0200).

An heap-based buffer overflow might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified records in a crafted Word document related to table parsing. (CVE-2009-0201).

Additional packages are also being provided due to dependencies.

Packages for 2008.0 are provided for Corporate Desktop 2008.0 customers.

This update of OpenOffice.org fixes potential buffer overflow in EMF parser code (CVE-2009-2139, CVE-2009-2140) (Thanks to Petr Mladek).
Additionally Secunia reported an integer underflow (CVE-2009-0200) and a buffer overflow (CVE-2009-0201) that could be triggered while parsing Word documents.
