CVE-2026-8356
Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.
Description
LibreOffice can import presentations in the legacy binary PPT format. A stack buffer overflow existed when importing a colour-replacement record. Two fixed-size colour tables were filled from the file, but the write position was not reset between the two passes over the record, so a file whose combined colour counts exceeded the table size wrote past the end of the tables on the stack. In fixed versions the unused second pass is no longer read into those tables.

"value": "LibreOffice puede importar presentaciones en el formato binario PPT heredado. Existía un desbordamiento de búfer en la pila al importar un registro de reemplazo de color. Dos tablas de color de tamaño fijo se llenaban desde el archivo, pero la posición de escritura no se restablecía entre las dos pasadas sobre el registro, por lo que un archivo cuyas cuentas de color combinadas excedían el tamaño de la tabla escribía más allá del final de las tablas en la pila. En versiones corregidas, la segunda pasada no utilizada ya no se lee en esas tablas."
