Unspecified vulnerability in Java Applets in OpenOffice.org 1.1.x (aka StarOffice) up to 1.1.5 and 2.0.x before 2.0.3 allows user-assisted attackers to escape the Java sandbox and conduct unauthorized activities via certain applets in OpenOffice documents.

OpenOffice.org (aka StarOffice) 1.1.x up to 1.1.5 and 2.0.x before 2.0.3 allows user-assisted attackers to conduct unauthorized activities via an OpenOffice document with a malicious BASIC macro, which is executed without prompting the user.

Integer overflow in OpenOffice.org before 2.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via an EMF file with a crafted EMRSTRETCHBLT record, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.

Multiple heap-based buffer overflows in OpenOffice.org before 2.4 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a Quattro Pro (QPRO) file with crafted (1) Attribute and (2) Font Description records.

HSQLDB before 1.8.0.9, as used in OpenOffice.org (OOo) 2 before 2.3.1, allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary Java code via crafted database documents, related to "exposing static java methods."

OpenOffice.org (OOo) 2.2 does not properly handle files with multiple extensions, which allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service.

OpenOffice.org (OOo) Office Suite allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in a prepared link in a crafted document.

Stack-based buffer overflow in filter\starcalc\scflt.cxx in the StarCalc parser in OpenOffice.org (OOo) Office Suite before 2.2, and 1.x before 1.1.5 Patch, allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a document with a long Note.

Heap-based buffer overflow in OpenOffice.org (OOo) 2.2.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a RTF file with a crafted prtdata tag with a length parameter inconsistency, which causes vtable entries to be overwritten.

senddoc in OpenOffice.org (OOo) 2.4.1 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a /tmp/log.obr.##### temporary file.

OpenOffice.org 1.1.x packages as shipped in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 and 4 shipped with certain libraries built with insecure RPATH set in the ELF header. RPATH was incorrectly set to '$ORIGIN' instead of $ORIGIN.

This issue can be exploited by a local user to run arbitrary code as some other user if victim can be convinced to run openoffice in the attacker controlled directory with specially crafted content.

Multiple integer overflows in OpenOffice.org (OOo) 2.x before 2.4.2 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted EMR records in an EMF file associated with a StarOffice/StarSuite document, which trigger a heap-based buffer overflow.

Heap-based buffer overflow in OpenOffice.org (OOo) 2.x before 2.4.2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted WMF file associated with a StarOffice/StarSuite document.

Integer overflow in the rtlallocateMemory function in sal/rtl/source/allocglobal.c in OpenOffice.org (OOo) 2.0 through 2.4 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted file that triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.

Unspecified vulnerability in OpenOffice.org (OOo) has unspecified impact and remote attack vectors, as demonstrated by a certain module in VulnDisco Pack Professional 8.9. NOTE: as of 20091005, this disclosure has no actionable information. However, because the VulnDisco Pack author is a reliable researcher, the issue is being assigned a CVE identifier for tracking purposes.

Unspecified vulnerability in OpenOffice.org (OOo) has unknown impact and client-side attack vector, as demonstrated by a certain module in VulnDisco Pack Professional 8.8, aka "Client-side exploit." NOTE: as of 20091005, this disclosure has no actionable information. However, because the VulnDisco Pack author is a reliable researcher, the issue is being assigned a CVE identifier for tracking purposes.

Integer underflow in OpenOffice.org (OOo) before 3.1.1 and StarOffice/StarSuite 7, 8, and 9 might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted records in the document table of a Word document, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow.

Heap-based buffer overflow in OpenOffice.org (OOo) before 3.1.1 and StarOffice/StarSuite 7, 8, and 9 might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified records in a crafted Word document, related to "table parsing."

An integer truncation error, leading to heap-based buffer overflow was found in the way OpenOffice.org Impress presentation application sanitized dictionary property items of the processed file. An attacker could use this flaw to create a specially-crafted Microsoft PowerPoint (PPT) file that, when opened, would cause simpress.bin executable to crash, or, possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the ooimpress tool.
