Summary
Security update for libwpd
Details

This update for libwpd fixes the following issues:

Security issue fixed:

  • CVE-2017-14226: WP1StylesListener.cpp, WP5StylesListener.cpp, and WP42StylesListener.cpp in libwpd 0.10.1 mishandle iterators, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer over-read in the WPXTableList class in WPXTable.cpp). This vulnerability can be triggered in LibreOffice before 5.3.7. It may lead to suffering a remote attack against a LibreOffice application. (bnc#1058025)

Bugfixes:

  • Fix various crashes, leaks and hangs when reading damaged files found by oss-fuzz.
  • Fix crash when NULL is passed as input stream.
  • Use symbol visibility on Linux. The library only exports public functions now.
  • Avoid infinite loop. (libwpd#3)
  • Remove bashism. (libwpd#5)
  • Fix various crashes and hangs when reading broken files found with the help of american-fuzzy-lop.
  • Make --help output of all command line tools more help2man-friendly.
  • Miscellaneous fixes and cleanups.
  • Generate manpages for the libwpd-tools
