Description Sandipan Roy 2021-10-12 08:53:21 UTC
An Improper Certificate Validation vulnerability in LibreOffice allowed an attacker to modify a digitally signed ODF document to insert an additional signing time timestamp which LibreOffice would incorrectly present as a valid signature signed at the bogus signing time.

Comment 2 Garrett Tucker 2021-10-14 15:53:06 UTC
RHEL 8.6.0 and below are all affected by this flaw. RHEL 9 uses an updated version which is not exposed to the flaw. LibreOffice allowed for the ability to insert a signing timestamp which allowed for LibreOffice to show a valid signature due to the altered signing time.
