Descriptions

Integer overflow in LibreOffice before 4.4.5 and Apache OpenOffice before 4.1.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a long DOC file, which triggers a buffer overflow.

Desbordamiento de entero en LibreOffice en versiones anteriores a 4.4.5 y Apache OpenOffice en versiones anteriores a 4.1.2 permite a atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio (consumo de memoria y caída de la aplicación) o posiblemente ejecutar código arbitrario a través de un archivo DOC extenso, lo que desencadena un desbordamiento de buffer.

An integer overflow flaw, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow, was found in the way LibreOffice processed certain Microsoft Word .doc files. By tricking a user into opening a specially crafted Microsoft Word .doc document, an attacker could possibly use this flaw to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user opening the file.
