(Red Hat Issues Fix) OpenOffice StgCompObjStream::Load() Heap Overflow Lets Remote Users Execute Arbitrary Code
SecurityTracker Alert ID:  1013818
SecurityTracker URL:  http://securitytracker.com/id/1013818
CVE Reference:   CAN-2005-0941   (Links to External Site)
Date:  Apr 26 2005
Impact:   Execution of arbitrary code via network, User access via network
Fix Available:  Yes  Vendor Confirmed:  Yes  
Version(s): 1.1.4 and prior versions; 2.0dev
Description:   A buffer overflow vulnerability was reported in OpenOffice in the processing of 'DOC' documents. A remote user can create a document that, when processed, will execute arbitrary code.

The StgCompObjStream::Load() function incorrectly allocates memory based on user-supplied information contained in 'DOC' formatted files. A remote user can create a specially crafted document that, when processed by the target user with OpenOffice, will cause arbitrary code to be executed on the target user's system. The code will run with the privileges of the target user.

AD-LAB discovered this vulnerability. VENUSTECH reported this vulnerability.

Impact:   A remote user can create a document that, when processed by the target user, will execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the target user.
Solution:   Red Hat has issued a fix.

CVEs (cve.mitre.org): CAN-2005-0941
 


Details
Updated openoffice.org packages are now available.

This update has been rated as having important security impact by the Red
Hat Security Response Team.

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

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 fixes for these issues.



Solution
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied. Use Red Hat
Network to download and update your packages. To launch the Red Hat
Update Agent, use the following command:
