Severity: important

Description:

Apache OpenOffice supports the storage of passwords for web connections in the 
user's configuration database. The stored passwords are encrypted with a single 
master key provided by the user. A flaw in OpenOffice existed where master key 
was poorly encoded resulting in weakening its entropy from 128 to 43 bits 
making the stored passwords vulnerable to a brute force attack if an attacker 
has access to the users stored config. This issue affects: Apache OpenOffice 
versions prior to 4.1.13.  Reference: CVE-2022-26307 - LibreOffice
