Description Robert Buchholz (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-12-09 20:46:45 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #200771 +++

Thomas Biege:
  A security vulnerability in HSQLDB, the default database engine shipped
  with OpenOffice.org, may allow a remote unprivileged user who provides a
  StarOffice database document that is opened by a local user to execute
  arbitrary Java code on the system with the privileges of the user
  running OpenOffice.org.

This probably also affects our independent ebuild, too. See bug 111960 and java overlay for new ebuilds.
