CVE-2026-63276 PUBLISHED

Stack buffer overflow in CFF to Type 1 font conversion

Assigner: Document Fdn.
Reserved: 16.07.2026 Published: 22.09.2026 Updated: 22.09.2026

LibreOffice converts CFF fonts to Type 1 when it subsets a font, which happens when a document is exported to PDF, and CFF fonts may be embedded in documents. A stack buffer overflow existed in that conversion. The converted operators were written into a fixed size buffer with no check that they still fit, so a glyph emitting many operators wrote past the end of the buffer. In fixed versions the remaining capacity is tracked and the conversion stops when it is used up.
