Stack buffer overflow in CFF font hint handling
Get instant alerts when new vulnerabilities affect LibreOffice - before attackers find them.
LibreOffice can read CFF fonts, which may be embedded in documents. A stack buffer overflow existed when reading the hints of a glyph. The number of hints was checked against the wrong bound, so a glyph declaring more hints than the array can hold wrote past its end. In fixed versions the hint count is checked against the capacity the array really has.
