NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libreoffice-help-fr package and not the libreoffice-help-fr package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

LibreOffice Calc compiles cell formulas when opening a spreadsheet. A heap buffer overflow existed when compiling a very long formula made up of many opening tokens. The array that tracks nesting depth was allocated one element too small for that worst case, so such a formula wrote one element past its end. In fixed versions the array is sized to hold the largest possible nesting.
