Bug ID: 172825
Summary: LibreOffice Calc fails to open password-protected .ods
files on ChromeOS (reported as corrupted)
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 26.2.4.2 release
Hardware: Other
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
=== Environment ===
- OS: ChromeOS (using Linux development environment / Crostini)
- Application: LibreOffice Calc
- File Format: ODS (.ods) with password encryption (AES-256)
=== Expected Behavior ===
When opening a password-encrypted .ods file on ChromeOS, LibreOffice Calc
should prompt for the password, decrypt the file, and open it normally
(matching the behavior on Windows).
=== Actual Behavior ===
When attempting to open the same password-encrypted .ods file (created and
encrypted on Windows) in LibreOffice Calc on ChromeOS, the application fails to
prompt for the password. Instead, it immediately displays an error dialog
stating that the file is corrupted and cannot be opened.
=== Steps to Reproduce ===
1. On a Windows PC, create a new spreadsheet in LibreOffice Calc and save it as
an .ods file with "Save with password" enabled.
2. Transfer this encrypted .ods file to a Chromebook (ChromeOS).
3. Open LibreOffice Calc on ChromeOS and attempt to open the transferred file.
4. Observe that instead of asking for the password, an error dialog pops up
claiming the file is corrupted.
=== Additional Information ===
- Unencrypted .ods files transfer and open perfectly between Windows and
ChromeOS.
- This issue seems specifically related to how the encryption/decryption
handshake or the cryptographic libraries are handled within the ChromeOS Linux
container.
