Description Mark J. Cox 2008-06-09 11:52:26 UTC 
Sean Larsson found a heap overflow flaw in the OpenOffice memory allocator.  An
attacker could create a carefully crafted file that could cause OpenOffice.org
to crash or possibly execute arbitrary code if the file was opened by a victim.
(CVE-2008-2152) 

This probably affects all OpenOffice shipped in RHEL3,4,5

Embargo is Jun 10 or 11 (2.4.1 release of OpenOffice.org)
