  - CVE-2017-7870: An out-of-bounds write caused by a     heap-based buffer overflow related to the     tools::Polygon::Insert function.

  - CVE-2017-7882: An out-of-bounds write related to the     HWPFile::TagsRead function.

  - CVE-2017-8358: an out-of-bounds write caused by a     heap-based buffer overflow related to the ReadJPEG     function.

  - CVE-2016-10327: An out-of-bounds write caused by a     heap-based buffer overflow related to the     EnhWMFReader::ReadEnhWMF function.

  - CVE-2017-9433: An out-of-bounds write caused by a     heap-based buffer overflow related to the     MsWrd1Parser::readFootnoteCorrespondance function in     libmwaw. A comprehensive list of new features and     changes in this release is available at:

- CVE-2017-7870 Heap-buffer-overflow in WMF filter

  - CVE-2016-10327 Heap-buffer-overflow in EMF filter

Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

The version of LibreOffice installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 5.1, 5.1.x prior to 5.1.6, or 5.2.x prior to 5.2.5. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - An overflow condition exists when processing EMF files,     specifically in the EnhWMFReader::ReadEnhWMF() function     within file vcl/source/filter/wmf/enhwmf.cxx, due to     improper validation of a certain offset value in the     header that precedes bitmap data. An unauthenticated,     remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially     crafted enhanced metafile file (EMF), to cause a denial     of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code.
    Note that this vulnerability does not affect version     5.1.x. (CVE-2016-10327)

  - A file disclosure vulnerability exists due to a flaw in     the content preview feature when handling embedded     objects. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit     this, via a specially crafted file, to disclose details     of a file on the hosting system. (CVE-2017-3157)

  - An overflow condition exists in the Polygon::Insert()     function within file tools/source/generic/poly.cxx     when processing polygons in Windows metafiles (WMF) that     under certain circumstances result in polygons with more     points than can represented in LibreOffice's internal     polygon class. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can     exploit this, via a specially crafted WMF file, to cause     a denial of service condition or the execution of     arbitrary code. Note that this vulnerability does not     affect version 5.1.x. (CVE-2017-7870)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The version of LibreOffice installed on the remote Mac OS X or macOS host is prior to 5.1, 5.1.x prior to 5.1.6, or 5.2.x prior to 5.2.5.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201706-28 (LibreOffice: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in LibreOffice. Please       review the CVE identifiers referenced below for details.
  Impact :

    A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted file       using LibreOffice, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code with       the privileges of the process or a Denial of Service condition.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

This update contains binaries for the ports architectures only. This update was imported from the SUSE:SLE-12:Update update project.

The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS / 16.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-3273-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that LibreOffice incorrectly handled EMF image files. If a user were tricked into     opening a specially crafted EMF image file, a remote attacker could cause LibreOffice to crash, and     possibly execute arbitrary code.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.
