Summary

CVE-2023-49788 affects Collabora Online, an office suite based on LibreOffice technology. Unlike a dedicated server, the Built-in CODE Server (richdocumentscode) runs without chroot sandboxing, leaving it vulnerable to file overwrite attacks. Attackers can exploit this vulnerability by sending modified client-to-server commands, allowing them to overwrite files outside the session subdirectory. The server process's access permissions determine which files are at risk. Users are advised to upgrade to Collabora Online - Built-in CODE Server (richdocumentscode) release 23.5.602 to mitigate the issue, as no known workarounds have been identified.
