CVE-2022-3140

Description

A vulnerability was found in LibreOffice that affects the Office URI Schemes. These schemes enable browser integration of LibreOffice with the MS SharePoint server. In LibreOffice, the links using the scheme 'vnd.libreoffice.command' could be constructed to call internal macros with arbitrary arguments, which, when clicked, or activated by document events, could result in arbitrary script execution without warning. The attacker must trick the targeted individual into opening a malicious file to trigger the exploit.

Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details

Info alert:Important note

CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
