Source package | libreoffice |
Fixed in version | 1:5.2.7-1+deb9u9 |
Description | This update addresses the following issues: * LibreOffice has a feature where documents can specify that pre-installed scripts can be executed on various document events such as mouse-over, etc. LibreOffice is typically also bundled with LibreLogo, a programmable turtle vector graphics script, which can be manipulated into executing arbitrary Python commands. By using the document event feature to trigger LibreLogo to execute Python contained within a document a malicious document could be constructed which would execute arbitrary Python commands silently without warning. In the fixed versions, LibreLogo cannot be called from a document event handler. (CVE-2019-9848) * LibreOffice has a 'stealth mode' in which only documents from locations deemed 'trusted' are allowed to retrieve remote resources. This mode is not the default mode, but can be enabled by users who want to disable LibreOffice's ability to include remote resources within a document. A flaw existed where bullet graphics were omitted from this protection. (CVE-2019-9849) |
