+ TARGETED DATA DISCLOSURE</strong></p>
+
+ <p style="text-align:center; font-size:larger"><strong>Fixed in Apache
OpenOffice 4.1.2</strong></p>
+
+
+ <p>
+ <strong>Version 1.0</strong>
+ <br />
+ Announced November 4, 2015</p>
+
+ <p>
+ A vulnerability in OpenOffice settings of OpenDocument Format
+ files and templates allows silent access to files that are
+ readable from an user account, over-riding the user's default
+ configuration settings. Once these files are imported into a
+ maliciously-crafted document, the data can be silently hidden
+ in the document and possibly exported to an external party
+ without being observed.
+</p>
+
+ <p>
+ <strong>Severity: Important</strong>
+ </p>
+ <p>There are no known exploits of this vulnerabilty.<br />
+ A proof-of-concept demonstration exists.</p>
+ <p>
+ <strong>Vendor: The Apache Software Foundation</strong>
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ <strong>Versions Affected</strong></p>
+
+ <p>All Apache OpenOffice versions 4.1.1 and older are affected.<br />
+ OpenOffice.org versions are also affected.</p>
+
+ <p><strong>Related</strong>:
+ <a
href="https://www.openoffice.org/security/cves/CVE-2014-3575.html";>CVE-2014-3575</a>
+ and <a
href="https://www.openoffice.org/security/cves/CVE-2012-0037.html";>CVE-2012-0037</a></p>
+
+ <p>
+ <strong>Mitigation</strong>
+ </p>
+ <p>Apache OpenOffice users are urged to download and install
+ Apache OpenOffice version 4.1.2 or later.</p>
+ <p>
+ Apache OpenOffice 4.1.2 mitigates this vulnerability by ignoring
+ in-document settings that over-ride default behavior when accessing
+ data beyond the document itself. The automatic default behavior
+ is changed to make such access evident to the user, who must then
+ approve the access.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ <strong>Nature of Attack</strong>
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ This vulnerability requires an exquisitely crafted attack to
+ locate targeted files, silently retrieve them, and then deliver
+ their data in a manner that escapes notice. Knowledge of the
+ user's system and specific configuration is generally required.
+ </p>
+ <p><strong>Precautions</strong></p>
+ <p>
+
+ <p>
+ In addition to keeping Apache OpenOffice updated, users can reduce
+ the threat of this kind of data access from ODF
+ documents. Keep documents and sensitive materials separate from
+ common, predictable locations, including on networks. Require
+ additional access permissions for access to sensitive materials
+ even when operating under the user's normal account.</p>
