Description SMASH SMASH 2025-01-07 17:38:16 UTC
Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') vulnerability in The Document Foundation LibreOffice allows Absolute Path Traversal.

An attacker can write to arbitrary locations, albeit suffixed with ".ttf", by supplying a file in a format that supports embedded font files.

This issue affects LibreOffice: from 24.8 before < 24.8.4.

LibreOffice 24.8.4 is currently being shipped for both SLE12-SP5 and SLE15-SP5, which fixes this issue. We'll be upgrading to 24.8.5 soon.

Factory already has 25.2.

So I think this is already solved, I'm reassigning back to security.
