AbiWord RTF File Processing Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

AbiWord is susceptible to a buffer-overflow vulnerability. This issue is due to the application's failure to properly bounds-check user-supplied data before copying it to an insufficiently sized memory buffer while importing RTF files.

This issue likely allows attackers to execute arbitrary machine code in the context of the user running the affected application.
