CVE-2019-9850: Insufficient url validation allowing LibreLogo script execution

LibreOffice is typically bundled with LibreLogo, a programmable turtle vector graphics script, which can execute arbitrary python commands contained with the document it is launched from. LibreOffice also has a feature where documents can specify that pre-installed scripts can be executed on various document script events such as mouse-over, etc. Protection was added, to address CVE-2019-9848, to block calling LibreLogo from script event handers. However an insufficient url validation vulnerability in LibreOffice allowed malicious to bypass that protection and again trigger calling LibreLogo from script event handlers. This issue affects: Document Foundation LibreOffice versions prior to 6.2.6.

Security readout for executives and security teams

A malicious LibreOffice document could abuse bundled LibreLogo scripting to run Python code when document events fire. LibreOffice versions before 6.2.6 are affected. The main business risk is user workstations or document-processing workflows opening hostile office files. Exposure is most likely on desktops, VDI images, and server-side document conversion systems running LibreOffice before 6.2.6 or unpatched distributor packages. Treat as a high-priority patching issue where LibreOffice handles external documents. There is no source-backed evidence of active exploitation here, but the potential outcome is code execution through malicious documents. Mitigation focus: Upgrade LibreOffice to 6.2.6 or later where directly installed.; Apply the relevant Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, or openSUSE security package update.; Prioritize systems that open external or email-delivered office documents..
