NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libwpd-debuginfo package and not the libwpd-debuginfo package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:10 relevant fixed versions and status.

Integer overflow in the WP6GeneralTextPacket::_readContents function in WordPerfect Document importer/exporter (libwpd) before 0.8.9 allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted WordPerfect file, a different vulnerability than CVE-2007-0002.
