Desbordamiento de entero en la función rtl_allocateMemory en sal/rtl/source/alloc_global.c en OpenOffice.org (OOo) 2.0 through 2.4, permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código de su elección a través de un archivo manipulado que lanza un desbordamiento de búfer basado en montículo.

Integer overflow in the rtl_allocateMemory function in sal/rtl/source/alloc_global.c in OpenOffice.org (OOo) 2.0 through 2.4 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted file that triggers a heap-based buffer overflow. Also, according to bug #38874 decimal numbers on Hebrew documents would appear as Arabic characters. Another issue (#39799) is with (Tools -> Options -> OpenOffice.org Writer -> General). Even setting to centimeters on (Indent & Spacing) option it shows as characters (ch) on (Indents & Spacing) configuration on the menu: (Format -> Paragraph -> Indents & Spacing). Moreover, a document holding Notes edited on Microsoft Office would not show when opened with OpenOffice. These and a number of other OpenOffice.org issues were fixed by the new version provided in this update.
