Descriptions

By exploiting the way Apache OpenOffice before 4.1.4 renders embedded objects, an attacker could craft a document that allows reading in a file from the user's filesystem. Information could be retrieved by the attacker by, e.g., using hidden sections to store the information, tricking the user into saving the document and convincing the user to send the document back to the attacker. The vulnerability is mitigated by the need for the attacker to know the precise file path in the target system, and the need to trick the user into saving the document and sending it back.

Mediante la explotación de la forma en la que las versiones anteriores a la 4.1.4 de Apache OpenOffice renderizan objetos embebidos, un atacante podría manipular un documento que permite leer en un archivo del sistema de archivos del usuario. El atacante podría recuperar información mediante el uso de, por ejemplo, secciones ocultas para almacenar la información, engañando al usuario para que guarde el documento y convenciéndolo para que envíe de nuevo el documento al atacante. La vulnerabilidad se mitiga por la necesidad del atacante de conocer la ruta de archivo precisa en el sistema objetivo y la necesidad de engañar al usuario para que guarde el documento y lo envíe de vuelta.

It was found that LibreOffice disclosed contents of a file specified in an embedded object's preview. An attacker could potentially use this flaw to expose details of a system running LibreOffice as an online service via a crafted document.
