openoffice.org is vulnerable to arbitrary code execution. An integer overflow flaw leading to a heap buffer overflow in the Windows Metafile (WMF) image format parser allows an attacker to create a carefully crafted document containing a malicious WMF file that could cause OpenOffice.org to crash, or, possibly, execute arbitrary code if opened by a victim.
