HTTP: OpenOffice EMF File EMR_BITBLT Record Integer Overflow

This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability in OpenOffice. A successful attack can lead to a integer overflow and arbitrary remote code execution within the context of the user.

Extended Description

OpenOffice is prone to multiple remote heap-based buffer-overflow vulnerabilities because of errors in processing certain files. Remote attackers can exploit these issues by enticing victims into opening maliciously crafted ODF, Quattro Pro, EMF, or OLE 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.
