Versions    : rh9: openoffice-1.0.2-11.2.legacy

Summary     : OpenOffice.org comprehensive office suite.
Description :
OpenOffice.org is an Open Source, community-developed, multi-platform
office productivity suite.  It includes the key desktop applications,
such as a word processor, spreadsheet, presentation manager, formula
editor and drawing program, with a user interface and feature set
similar to other office suites.  Sophisticated and flexible,
OpenOffice.org also works transparently with a variety of file
formats, including Microsoft Office.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

Updated openoffice.org packages that fix two security issues are now
available.

OpenOffice.org is an office productivity suite that includes desktop
applications such as a word processor, spreadsheet, presentation
manager, formula editor, and drawing program.

Secunia Research reported an issue with the handling of temporary
files. A malicious local user could use this flaw to access the contents
of another user's open documents. The Common Vulnerabilities and
Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2004-0752 to
this issue.

A heap based buffer overflow bug was found in the OpenOffice.org DOC
file processor. An attacker could create a carefully crafted DOC file in
such a way that it could cause OpenOffice.org to execute arbitrary code
when the file was opened by a victim. The Common Vulnerabilities and
Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2005-0941 to
this issue.

All users of OpenOffice.org are advised to upgrade to these updated
packages which contain backported patches to correct these issues.
