Rene Engelhard uploaded new packages for openoffice.org which fixed the
following security problems:
CVE-2010-2935 CVE-2010-2936:
Charlie Miller has discovered two vulnerabilities in OpenOffice.org
Impress, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a
user's system and execute arbitrary code.
1) An integer truncation error when parsing certain content can be
exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow via a specially
crafted file.
2) A short integer overflow error when parsing certain content can
be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow via a specially
crafted file.
For the lenny-backports distribution the problems have been fixed in
version 1:3.2.1-6~bpo50+1.
For the squeeze and sid distributions the problems have been fixed in
version 1:3.2.1-6.
