+	  <p>LibreOffice Calc supports a WEBSERVICE function to obtain data by URL.
+	     Vulnerable versions of LibreOffice allow WEBSERVICE to take a local file
+	     URL (e.g file://) which can be used to inject local files into the
+	     spreadsheet without warning the user. Subsequent formulas can operate on
+	     that inserted data and construct a remote URL whose path leaks the local
+	     data to a remote attacker.</p>
+	  <p>In later versions of LibreOffice without this flaw, WEBSERVICE has now
+	     been limited to accessing http and https URLs along with bringing
+	     WEBSERVICE URLs under LibreOffice Calc's link management infrastructure.</p>
+	   <p><strong>Note:</strong> This vulnerability has been identified upstream
+	     as CVE-2018-1055, but NVD/Mitre are advising it's a reservation
+	     duplicate of CVE-2018-6871 which should be used instead.</p>
