libwpd is a library for reading and converting Word Perfect documents.

iDefense reported several overflow bugs in libwpd. An attacker could
create a carefully crafted Word Perfect file that could cause an
application linked with libwpd, such as OpenOffice, to crash or possibly
execute arbitrary code if the file was opened by a victim. (CVE-2007-0002)

All users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a
backported fix for this issue.

Red Hat would like to thank Fridrich Strba for alerting us to these issues
and providing a patch.
