Description Marc Schoenefeld 2010-11-29 20:00:17 UTC

Marc Schoenefeld discovered a heap based buffer overflow in
OpenOffice.org 3.X, when imported certain Microsoft PowerPoint
files (PPT). If a user opened a specially crafted PPT file,
it could lead to applicable crash or possibly execution of
arbitrary code,  with the privileges of the user running
OpenOffice.org Impress.
