CVE-2009-2139

Manipulated EMF files can lead to heap overflows and arbitrary code

We recently created CVE-2009-3239 to address an OpenOffice overflow in
enhwmf.cxx/emfplus.cxx, as described in SUSE-SR:2009:015:

  "This update of OpenOffice.org fixes potential buffer overflow in EMF
   parser code (enhwmf.cxx, emfplus.cxx)."

Is CVE-2009-3239 a duplicate of CVE-2009-2139?

(If so, we would probably keep CVE-2009-2139 and remove CVE-2009-3239.)


Our text actually references the issues CVE-2009-2139 and CVE-2009-2140
but did not specify them due to an oversight.

http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2009-2140

Both are go-ooo.org build specific issues.

Ciao, Marcus
