What happened?
An unchecked memory access in the PDF import code of Apache OpenOffice versions through 4.1.16 on allows a crafted PDF to execute an out-of-bounds memory write. This could crash the program or cause memory corruption. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 4.1.17, which fixes this issue.
