The remote host is missing an update to openoffice.org
announced via advisory MDVSA-2010:105.
This updates provides a new OpenOffice.org version 3.1.1. It holds
security and bug fixes described as follow:
An integer underflow might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary
code via crafted records in the document table of a Word document,
leading to a heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-2009-0200).
A heap-based buffer overflow might allow remote attackers to execute
arbitrary code via unspecified records in a crafted Word document,
related to table parsing (CVE-2009-0201).
A heap-based buffer overflow allows remote attackers to execute
arbitrary code via a crafted EMF file (CVE-2009-2139).
Multiple heap-based buffer overflows allow remote attackers to execute
arbitrary code via a crafted EMF+ file (CVE-2009-2140).
OpenOffice's xmlsec uses a bundled Libtool which might load .la
file in the current working directory allowing local users to gain
privileges via a Trojan horse file. For enabling such vulnerability
xmlsec has to use --enable-crypto_dl building flag however it does
not, although the fix keeps protected against this threat whenever
that flag had been enabled (CVE-2009-3736).

OpenOffice.org is not properly configure to use the xdg-email
functionality of the FreeDesktop standard (#52195).
Template desktop icons are not properly set up then they are not
presented under the context menu of applications like Dolphin (#56439).
libia_ora-gnome is added as suggest as long as that package is needed
for a better look (#57385#c28).
It is enabled a fallback logic to properly select an OpenOffice.org
style whenever one is set up but that is not installed (#57530#c1,
#53284, #45133, #39043)
It is enabled the Firefox plugin for viewing OpenOffice.org documents
inside browser.
