+ <title>OpenOffice.org vulnerability when using DAV servers</title>
+ <synopsis>
+ Several format string vulnerabilities are present in the Neon library
+ included in OpenOffice.org, allowing remote execution of arbitrary code

+ <background>
+ <p>
+ OpenOffice.org is an office productivity suite, including word processing,
+ spreadsheets, presentations, drawings, data charting, formula editing, and
+ file conversion facilities.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ OpenOffice.org includes code from the Neon library in functions related to
+ publication on WebDAV servers. This library is vulnerable to several format
+ string attacks.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="high">
+ <p>
+ If you use the WebDAV publication and connect to a malicious WebDAV server,
+ this server can exploit these vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary code
+ with the rights of the user running OpenOffice.org.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ As a workaround, you should not use the WebDAV publication facilities.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ There is no Ximian OpenOffice.org binary version including the fix yet. All
+ users of the openoffice-ximian-bin package making use of the WebDAV
+ openoffice-ximian source-based package.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ openoffice users on the x86 architecture should:

+ # emerge -pv ">=app-office/openoffice-1.1.1-r1"
+ # emerge ">=app-office/openoffice-1.1.1-r1"</code>

+ openoffice users on the sparc architecture should:
+ </p>
