Technical details
A heap buffer overflow and type confusion vulnerability exists in LibreOffice's OOXML (DOCX) import component. The flaw occurs when replaying deferred parser events for a text box element; a handler object is incorrectly assumed to be of a specific type and is written to using that type's field layout. If the actual object is smaller than the assumed type, the write operation occurs past the end of the allocated memory buffer. This out-of-bounds write is triggered via local user interaction (opening a crafted document). In fixed versions, the application performs a type check before the write operation to ensure memory safety.
