Last modified

CVE-2005-0941 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The StgCompObjStream::Load function in OpenOffice.org OpenOffice 1.1.4 and earlier allocates memory based on 16 bit length values, but process memory using 32 bit values, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a DOC document with certain length values, which leads to a heap-based buffer overflow.. EPSS estimates a 4.13% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
