CVE-2014-3693

Vulnerabilidad de uso después de liberación en el gestor del socket de Impress Remote en LibreOffice 4.x anterior a 4.2.7 y 4.3.x anterior a 4.3.3 permite a atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio (caída) o posiblemente ejecutar código arbitrario a través de una solicitud manipulada al puerto TCP 1599.

A use-after-free flaw was found in the "Remote Control" capabilities of the LibreOffice Impress application. An attacker could use this flaw to remotely execute code with the permissions of the user running LibreOffice Impress.

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.
