CVE-2008-3437

Publication date 1 August 2008

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Low

Why this priority?

OpenOffice.org (OOo) before 2.1.0 does not properly verify the authenticity of updates, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to execute arbitrary code via a Trojan horse update, as demonstrated by evilgrade and DNS cache poisoning.
