Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Out-of-Bounds. Heap-based buffer overflow in svtools/source/filter.vcl/wmf/enhwmf.cxx in Go-oo 2.x and 3.x before 3.0.1, previously named ooo-build and related to OpenOffice.org (OOo), allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted EMF file, a similar issue to CVE-2008-2238.
