Interesting that a 92.5Mb fix in OOo is out today:

Launchpad-Bugs-Fixed: 75478 90513 106186
Changes:
 openoffice.org (2.2.0-1ubuntu4) feisty-security; urgency=low
 .
   * ooo-build/patches/src680/sw.rtf.prtdata.diff: fix RTF parser heap
     overflow (CVE-2007-0244).
   * Avoid wrong document recovery attempt after fullscreen presentations
     in Impress. Closes LP: #90513.
   * Do not hide the OOo Draw menu item. Closes LP: #75478.
   * Fix icon style selection to not select a style which is not installed.
     Closes LP: #106186.

But nothing to fix this bug.
