TITLE:
Corel WordPerfect Document Processing Buffer Overflow

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA24664

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/24664/

CRITICAL:
Highly critical

IMPACT:
System access

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
Corel WordPerfect Office X3
http://secunia.com/product/8816/

DESCRIPTION:
Jonathan So has discovered a vulnerability in Corel WordPerfect
Office X3, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a
vulnerable system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error within the
processing of WordPerfect documents. This can be exploited to cause a
stack-based buffer overflow via a specially crafted document with an
overly long (greater than 256 WCHAR bytes) printer selection file
name.

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code but
requires that the user is tricked into e.g. opening a malicious
document.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 13.0.0.565. Other versions
may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Do not open untrusted documents.
