LibreOffice < 4.1.5 / 4.2.0 Python Multiple Vulnerabilities (Mac OS X)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 73337

Synopsis

The remote host contains an application that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities with Python.

Description

A version of LibreOffice prior to 4.1.5 / 4.2.0 is installed on the remote Mac OS X host. It is, therefore, reportedly affected by multiple vulnerabilities including a denial of service vulnerability related to Python.

A remote attacker could use these flaws to cause a denial of service or to conduct spoofing attacks.

Note that Nessus has not attempted to exploit these issues, but has instead relied only on the self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to LibreOffice version 4.1.5 / 4.2.0 or later.
