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

it could lead to applicable crash or possibly execution of
arbitrary code,  with the privileges of the user running
OpenOffice.org Impress.
