CVE-2026-6047 Details
Description
LibreOffice can import documents in the OOXML format (DOCX). A heap buffer overflow existed when replaying deferred parser events for a text box element. A handler object was assumed to be of one type and written to at that type's field layout, but it could be a smaller object, so the write landed past the end of the allocation. In fixed versions the type is checked before the write.
A heap buffer overflow vulnerability has been identified in LibreOffice when importing OOXML documents (DOCX format). The issue arises during the processing of deferred parser events for text box elements. A handler object was incorrectly assumed to be of a certain type, allowing it to be written to a specific field layout. However, the object could be smaller, causing the write operation to exceed the allocated memory. In the patched versions, the type is validated before the write occurs.
Users can upgrade to LibreOffice versions 26.2.3, 25.8.7, or 24.8.6 to address this vulnerability.
