Descriptions

soffice in OpenOffice.org (OOo) 3.x before 3.3 places a zero-length directory name in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH, which allows local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse shared library in the current working directory.

Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in OpenOffice and LibreOffice, the worst of which may result in execution of arbitrary code.
