LibreOffice: Windows vulnerability affects links in documents, patch available​

Solution: install the update to LibreOffice 24.8.5​

A new version of LibreOffice was released last week that fixes the security issue by blocking means to circumvent the link protections.

LibreOffice 24.8.5 is available and users are encouraged to install the new version on their devices, especially if they run the software on a Windows PC.

Downloads are provided on the official project website. Note that LibreOffice 24.8.x is the previous stable branch of the open Office suite. You may also download and install LibreOffice 25.2.1, which is the current stable version.

Note that the developers do not mention LibreOffice 25.2.1 in the context of the vulnerability. This suggests that the latest version is also -- likely -- not affected by the vulnerability.
