Hi, This looks significant. Considering the age of the bug it probably affects Libreoffice too.

The problem has existed since about 2006 a nd the issue is also in 4.1.9. If the link is specifically crafted this could l ead to untrusted code execution. It is always best practice to be careful openi ng documents from unknown and unverified sources. The mitigation in Apache Open Office 4.1.10 (unreleased) assures that a security warning is displayed giving the user the option of continuing to open the hyperlink.
