Description: Some vulnerabilities have been reported in OpenOffice, which can be exploited by malicious people to potentially compromise a user's system.
1) Boundary errors in the parsing of "Attribute" and "Font Description" records in Quattro Pro files can be exploited to cause heap-based buffer overflows via a specially crafted Quattro Pro file with more than 256 records.
2) An integer underflow error in the parsing of Quattro Pro files can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via a specially crafted Quattro Pro file.
3) An integer overflow error in the parsing of EMR_STRETCHBLT records in EMF files can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow via a specially crafted EMF file.
4) A boundary error in the parsing of "DocumentSummaryInformation" streams in OLE files can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow via a specially crafted OLE file.
5) Two errors in the processing of ODF text documents containing specially crafted XForms can be exploited to corrupt heap memory.
