Hi Steve, vendors,

  two security flaws have been reported against OpenOffice.org's Impress tool:
    [1] http://securityevaluators.com/files/papers/CrashAnalysis.pdf

A, an integer truncation error, leading to heap-based buffer overflow when
   processing dictionary property items of the input *.ppt file:

     [5] http://www.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=dev&msgNo=27690

B, a short integer overflow, leading to heap-based buffer overflow, when processing
   *.ppt document with too big polygons

Could you allocate CVE ids for these two issues?

Thanks && Regards, Jan.
