Package name wv
Date November 7th, 2006
Advisory ID MDKSA-2006:202
Affected versions CS3.0, 2006.0, 2007.0

Problem Description

Multiple integer overflows in the WV library in wvWare (formerly
mswordview) before 1.2.3, as used by AbiWord?, KWord, and possibly
other products, allow user-assisted remote attackers to execute
arbitrary code via a crafted Microsoft Word (DOC) file that produces
(1) large LFO clfolvl values in the wvGetLFO_records function or (2) a
large LFO nolfo value in the wvGetFLO_PLF function.

Updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.
