Description
===========
Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in OpenOffice and
Libreoffice. Please review the CVE identifiers referenced below for
details.
Impact
======
A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted file
using OpenOffice, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code
with the privileges of the process, a Denial of Service condition,
execution of arbitrary Python code, authentication bypass, or reading
and writing of arbitrary files.
Workaround
==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution
==========
All OpenOffice (binary) users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot -v ">=app-office/openoffice-bin-3.5.5.3"
All LibreOffice users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-office/libreoffice-4.2.5.2"=
All LibreOffice (binary) users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot -v ">=app-office/libreoffice-bin-4.2.5.2"
We recommend that users unmerge OpenOffice:
# emerge --unmerge "app-office/openoffice"
