    WP42StylesListener.cpp in libwpd 0.10.1 mishandle iterators, which
    allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer
    over-read in the WPXTableList class in WPXTable.cpp). This vulnerability
    can be triggered in LibreOffice before 5.3.7. It may lead to suffering a
    remote attack against a LibreOffice application. (bnc#1058025)

    - Fix various crashes and hangs when reading broken files found with the
