Rene Engelhard uploaded new packages for openoffice.org which
fixed the following security updates:

CVE-2009-0200

Dyon Balding of Secunia Research has discovered a vulnerability,
which can be exploited by opening a specially crafted Microsoft
Word document.

When reading a Microsoft Word document, a bug in the parser of
sprmTDelete records can result in an integer underflow that may
lead to heap-based buffer overflows.

Successful exploitation may allow arbitrary code execution in the               
context of the OpenOffice.org process.

Upgrade instructions

If you don't use pinning
(http://backports.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=instructions) you have to
update the package manually via apt-get -t lenny-backports install
<packagename>.

We recommend to pin the backports repository to 200 so that new versions
of installed backports will be installed automatically.
