CVE-2021-25634

Title: Timestamp Manipulation with Signature Wrapping

Announced: October 11, 2021

Fixed in: LibreOffice 7.0.6/7.1.2

Description:

LibreOffice supports digital signatures of ODF documents and macros within documents, presenting visual aids that no alteration of the document occurred since the last signing and that the signature is valid.

An Improper Certificate Validation vulnerability in LibreOffice allowed an attacker to modify a digitally signed ODF document to insert an additional signing time timestamp which LibreOffice would incorrectly present as a valid signature signed at the bogus signing time.
