Mandrake Linux Security Advisory : OpenOffice.org (MDKSA-2006:033)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 20854

Synopsis

The remote Mandrake Linux host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

OpenOffice.org 2.0 and earlier, when hyperlinks has been disabled, does not prevent the user from clicking the WWW-browser button in the Hyperlink dialog, which makes it easier for attackers to trick the user into bypassing intended security settings.

Updated packages are patched to address this issue.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
