How to fix?

There is no fixed version for RHEL:6 libreoffice-sdk-doc.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libreoffice-sdk-doc package and not the libreoffice-sdk-doc package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:6 relevant fixed versions and status.

LibreOffice can import presentations in the legacy binary PPT format. A stack buffer overflow existed when importing a colour-replacement record. Two fixed-size colour tables were filled from the file, but the write position was not reset between the two passes over the record, so a file whose combined colour counts exceeded the table size wrote past the end of the tables on the stack. In fixed versions the unused second pass is no longer read into those tables.
