CVE-2009-0200/CVE-2009-0201: Harden .doctable insert/delete record import handling.

Summary

OpenOffice.org is an Open Source, community-developed, multi-platform

office productivity suite. It includes the key desktop applications,

such as a word processor, spreadsheet, presentation manager, formula

editor and drawing program, with a user interface and feature set

similar to other office suites. Sophisticated and flexible,

OpenOffice.org also works transparently with a variety of file

formats, including Microsoft Office.

Usage: Simply type "ooffice" to run OpenOffice.org or select the

requested component (Writer, Calc, Impress, etc.) from your

desktop menu. On first start a few files will be installed in the

user's home, if necessary.
