Hi Kurt. Yes, sorry I didn't report directly to the correct people. I only knew that the vulnerability existed for sure in the Nokia Documents app and also in the version of Koffice I happen to have on my system. I didn't know what library it was in (I'd never even heard of Calligra), if it was already known about upstream, what other software depend on this library, etc. As you're probably aware, it can be a very time consuming process to try to get that stuff sorted out, so I just report it to the vendor and let them deal with these issues. In that spirit, I reported to Nokia early last month. As for your questions, I have not asked for CVE's for any of these vulnerabilities. Feel free to request them yourselves. I believe the only vulnerability I know enough details about to say is a security issue is the one in the document about parsing word documents. I hope that clears up any questions you might have. Thanks! Charlie On Aug 5, 2012, at 3:25 PM, Kurt Seifried wrote:

Trying to keep track of all possible project forks is pretty much impossible in the modern Open Source world. Charlie 1): have you requested CVE #'s for this issue for Koffice? Charlie 2): it appears there are quite a few other security issues in the presentation, are they in open source components, if yes can you please send a CVE request(s) for the issue to oss-security@ so I can assign CVE's for them? Thanks. Once Charlie replies (either way) I'll assign CVE's.Thanks, JeffAs reported by Thorsten Zachmann to the kde-packagers ml, here are the commit ids: The commit IDs for master is 8652ab672eaaa145dfb3782f5011de58aa4cc046 https://projects.kde.org/projects/calligra/repository/diff?rev=8652ab672eaaa145dfb3782f5011de58aa4cc046&rev_to=6e0323801dd144ad36720949fbef01d992a8e801 The commit ID for calligra/2.5 is f04d585ca1d3ee27f125d0129a23ca7b7850902d https://projects.kde.org/projects/calligra/repository/diff?rev=f04d585ca1d3ee27f125d0129a23ca7b7850902d&rev_to=b1bf5264e31cdab9e0b2fa74b7ae8393d6195af1 The commit ID for calligra/2.4 is 7d72f7dd8d28d18c59a08a7d43bd4e0654043103 https://projects.kde.org/projects/calligra/repository/diff?rev=7d72f7dd8d28d18c59a08a7d43bd4e0654043103&rev_to=7a9fa21b1f812b74b3e1501480dd14d10aeb347b Regards, Jorge Manuel B.
