CVE-2024-3044

Title: CVE-2024-3044: Graphic on-click binding allows unchecked script execution

Announced: May 14, 2024

Fixed in: LibreOffice 7.6.7/24.2.3

Description:

LibreOffice supports binding scripts to click events on graphics. In affected version of LibreOffice there are scenarios where built-in scripts can be executed without warning if the user clicks on a document with such on-click handlers.

In early versions of LibreOffice these scripts were deemed trusted, but are now deemed untrusted.

In the fixed versions the user's explicit macro execution permissions for the document, determined at load time, are used for these handlers.

Users are recommended to upgrade to 7.6.7 or 24.2.3 to avoid this flaw.
