Descriptions

The OLE preview generation in Apache OpenOffice before 4.1.1 and OpenOffice.org (OOo) might allow remote attackers to embed arbitrary data into documents via crafted OLE objects.

La generación de previsualizaciones OLE en Apache OpenOffice anterior a 4.1.1 y OpenOffice.org (OOo) podría permitir a atacantes remotos embeber datos arbitrarios en documentos a través de objetos OLE manipulados.

A flaw was found in the OLE (Object Linking and Embedding) generation in LibreOffice. An attacker could use this flaw to embed malicious OLE code in a LibreOffice document, allowing for arbitrary code execution.

LibreOffice is an open source, community-developed office productivity suite. It includes key desktop applications, such as a word processor, a spreadsheet, a presentation manager, a formula editor, and a drawing program. LibreOffice replaces OpenOffice and provides a similar but enhanced and extended office suite. It was found that LibreOffice documents executed macros unconditionally, without user approval, when these documents were opened using LibreOffice. An attacker could use this flaw to execute arbitrary code as the user running LibreOffice by embedding malicious VBA scripts in the document as macros.
