Technical details
The vulnerability exists in Apache OpenOffice's GStreamer multimedia component, which improperly handles multimedia content embedded in documents. A crafted ODF or related document can be constructed to cause GStreamer to load local files outside the document's sandbox; these files are then included when the user saves or exports the document. The attack requires user interaction (opening and then saving/exporting the document) but does not require special privileges or network access.
