Synopsis
========

A vulnerability has been discovered in LibreOffice which could result in arbitrary script execution via crafted links.

Background
==========

LibreOffice is a powerful office suite; its clean interface and powerful
tools let you unleash your creativity and grow your productivity.

Description
===========

LibreOffice links using the vnd.libreoffice.command scheme could be
constructed to call internal macros with arbitrary arguments. Which when clicked on, or activated by document events, could result in arbitrary
script execution without warning.

document and execute certain actions with it could achieve remote code execution.

Workaround
