    OpenOffice.org is an office productivity suite, including word
    processing, spreadsheets, presentations, drawings, data charting,
    formula editing, and file conversion facilities.

  <description>
    <p>
    AD-LAB has discovered a heap overflow in the "StgCompObjStream::Load()"
    function when processing DOC documents.
    </p>
  </description>
  <impact type="normal">
    <p>
    An attacker could design a malicious DOC document containing a
    specially crafted header which, when processed by OpenOffice.Org, would
    result in the execution of arbitrary code with the rights of the user
    running the application.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>
    There is no known workaround at this time.
    </p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>
    All OpenOffice.Org users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=app-office/openoffice-1.1.4-r1&quot;</code>
    <p>
    All OpenOffice.Org binary users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=app-office/openoffice-bin-1.1.4-r1&quot;</code>
    <p>
    All OpenOffice.Org Ximian users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose app-office/openoffice-ximian</code>
    <p>
    Note to PPC users: There is no stable OpenOffice.Org fixed version for
    the PPC architecture. Affected users should switch to the latest
    OpenOffice.Org Ximian version.
    </p>
    <p>
    Note to SPARC users: There is no stable OpenOffice.Org fixed version
    for the SPARC architecture. Affected users should switch to the latest
    OpenOffice.Org Ximian version.
