productivity suite. LibreOffice is a fork of OpenOffice.
Affected packages

——————————————————————-
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
——————————————————————-
1 app-office/openoffice-bin
< 3.5.5.3 >= 3.5.5.3
2 app-office/openoffice <= 3.5.5.3 Vulnerable!
3 app-office/libreoffice < 4.2.5.2 >= 4.2.5.2
4 app-office/libreoffice-bin
< 4.2.5.2 >= 4.2.5.2

Description
===========
Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in OpenOffice and
Libreoffice. Please review the CVE identifiers referenced below for
details.
Impact
======
A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted file
using OpenOffice, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code
with the privileges of the process, a Denial of Service condition,
execution of arbitrary Python code, authentication bypass, or reading
and writing of arbitrary files.
Workaround
==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution
==========
All OpenOffice (binary) users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge –sync
# emerge –ask –oneshot -v “>=app-office/openoffice-bin-3.5.5.3”
All LibreOffice users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge –sync
# emerge –ask –oneshot –verbose “>=app-office/libreoffice-4.2.5.2”
All LibreOffice (binary) users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge –sync
# emerge –ask –oneshot -v “>=app-office/libreoffice-bin-4.2.5.2”
We recommend that users unmerge OpenOffice:
# emerge –unmerge “app-office/openoffice”
