          LibreOffice comes bundled with sample macros written in Python and
          allows the ability to bind program events to them. A macro can be tied
          to a program event by including the script that contains the macro and
          the function name to be executed. Additionally, a directory traversal
          vulnerability exists in the component that references the Python script
          to be executed. This allows a program event to execute functions from Python
          scripts relative to the path of the samples macros folder. The pydoc.py script
          included with LibreOffice contains the tempfilepager function that passes
          arguments to os.system, allowing RCE.

          This module generates an ODT file with a mouse over event that
          when triggered, will execute arbitrary code.
