Title: OpenOffice Multiple Heap Based Buffer Overflow Vulnerabilities
Severity: HIGH
Description:
OpenOffice is a suite of office applications for multiple operating platforms.
OpenOffice is prone to multiple vulnerabilities:
1. CVE-2007-4770, CVE-2007-4771: Multiple heap-based buffer-overflow issues occur when the application processes specially crafted ODF text documents with XForms. Note that these issues stem from errors in the third-party ICU library that OpenOffice uses to parse the files. The ICU vulnerabilities are described in BID 27455.
2. CVE-2007-5745, CVE-2007-5747: Multiple heap-based buffer-overflow vulnerabilities arise when the application handles specially crafted Quattro Pro files. First, buffer-overflow issues can occur when parsing the file's 'Attribute' and 'Font Description' records. Attackers can trigger these issues by inserting more than 256 records. Second, a loop counter parsed from the QPRO file isn't properly checked for underflow conditions as it decrements.
3. CVE-2007-5746: A heap-based buffer-overflow issue presents itself because of an error in processing specially crafted EMF files. The issue occurs when allocating dynamically sized buffers based on parsing the 'EMR_STRETCHBLT' record.
4. CVE-2008-0320: A heap-based buffer overflow can occur when the application parses specially crafted OLE files. This issue arises when the importer for OLE files parses the 'DocumentSummaryInformation' stream and fails to adequately verify the size of a destination buffer before copying attacker-supplied information into it.
Remote attackers can exploit these issues by enticing victims into opening maliciously crafted files.
Successful exploits may allow attackers to execute arbitrary code within the context of the affected application. Failed exploit attempts will likely result in a denial of service.
The issues affect OpenOffice 2 prior to 2.4. The OLE and EMF file issues also affect OpenOffice 1.1.
