This update fixes memory corruption vulnerability in DOCM import and data exposure using crafted OLE objects.

A version of LibreOffice prior to 3.6.7 / 4.0.4 / 4.1.0 is installed on the remote Mac OS X host. It is, therefore, reportedly affected by a denial of service vulnerability.

A flaw exists in the .docm import filter that could cause a NULL dereference. This could allow a remote attacker with a specially crafted file to crash the application upon loading.

Note that Nessus has not attempted to exploit this issue, but has instead relied only on the self-reported version number.

LibreOffice was updated to version 4.0.3.3.26. (SUSE 4.0-patch26, tag suse-4.0-26, based on upstream 4.0.3.3).

The version of Apache OpenOffice installed on the remote host is prior to 4.0. It is, therefore, affected by memory corruption vulnerabilities related to the handling of PLCF (Plex of Character Positions in File) data and unknown XML elements in OOXML files. This can lead to application crashes and, potentially, other unspecified impacts.

A version of LibreOffice prior to 3.6.7 / 4.0.4 / 4.1.0 is installed on the remote Windows host. It is, therefore, reportedly affected by a denial of service vulnerability.

A flaw exists in the .docm import filter that could cause a NULL dereference. This could allow a remote attacker with a specially crafted file to crash the application upon loading.
