+ <background>
+ <p>
+ OpenOffice.org is an open source office productivity suite, including
+ word processing, spreadsheet, presentation, drawing, data charting,
+ formula editing, and file conversion facilities.

+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Internal security audits by OpenOffice.org have discovered three
+ security vulnerabilities related to Java applets, macros and the XML
+ file format parser.
+ </p>
+ <ul><li>Specially crafted Java applets can
+ break through the "sandbox".</li>
+ <li>Specially crafted macros make it
+ possible to inject BASIC code into documents which is executed when the
+ document is loaded.</li>
+ <li>Loading a malformed XML file can cause a
+ buffer overflow.</li>
+ </ul>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ An attacker might exploit these vulnerabilities to escape the Java
+ sandbox, execute arbitrary code or BASIC code with the permissions of
+ the user running OpenOffice.org.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ Disabling Java applets will protect against the vulnerability in the
+ handling of Java applets. There are no workarounds for the macro and
+ file format vulnerabilities.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All OpenOffice.org users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=app-office/openoffice-2.0.3"</code>
+ </resolution>
