2. Relevant releases/architectures:

RHEL Desktop Workstation (v. 5 client) - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version 4 - i386, ppc, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop (v. 5 client) - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop version 4 - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 4 - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS version 4 - i386, x86_64

3. Description:

OpenOffice.org is an office productivity suite that includes desktop applications, such as a word processor, spreadsheet application, presentation manager, formula editor, and a drawing program.

A flaw was found in the way OpenOffice.org enforced a macro security setting for macros, written in the Python scripting language, that were embedded in OpenOffice.org documents. If a user were tricked into opening a specially-crafted OpenOffice.org document and previewed the macro directory structure, it could lead to Python macro execution even if macro execution was disabled. (CVE-2010-0395)

All users of OpenOffice.org are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to correct this issue. For Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4, this erratum provides updated openoffice.org2 packages. For Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, this erratum provides updated openoffice.org packages. All running instances of OpenOffice.org applications must be restarted for this update to take effect.

4. Solution:

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/docs/DOC-11259
