Collabora Office 5.0 release is based on upstream LibreOffice 5.0 source code, thus it contains all fixes from the upstream libreoffice-5-0 branch, plus more fixes and backported stable features from higher releases.
Collabora Office 5.0-46
Released on 2018-10-22
Most important fixes
- Keep PyUNO script processing below base URI
Collabora Office 5.0-45
Released on 2018-05-25
Most important fixes
- CVE-2018-10583 Information disclosure via SMB link embedded in ODF document
- An ODF document with a linked image, which is on a Samba share, will cause Collabora Office to automatically initiate a Samba connection to retrieve the image. This is analogous to how opening HTML documents which contain links to images on remote web sites are automatically fetched by web browsers.
- Since Collabora Office 5.3-49, end users or administrators can disable this functionality to automatically fetch such linked images via “Tools->Options->Security->Options->Block any links from documents not among the trusted locations”
- Other security and stability fixes
