Description of problem:
05.40.21 CVE: CAN-2005-2964
Platform: Cross Platform
Title: AbiWord RTF File Processing Buffer Overflow
Description: AbiWord is an open source word processor. It is
susceptible to a buffer overflow vulnerability. This issue presents
itself when RTF files are imported into AbiWord. When the affected
application attempts to process malicious RTF files, a buffer may be
overwritten, resulting in the attacker being able to modify critical
memory control structures. AbiWord versions 2.0.1 through 2.2.9 are
vulnerable.
