            Bug ID: 158375
           Summary: Ability to disable active content in LibreOffice
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: Inherited From OOo
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: framework

LibreOffice supports several features that are rarely used or have caused
security problems in the past. These functional areas are:

    LibreLogo scripts
    DDE commands
    OLE objects
    Macros

It is desirable in security-sensitive environments that these individual
features should be deactivatable, in each case by a new configuration option in
the user interface. Additionally a configuration is to be implemented, which is
displayed in the user interface that blocks all active content. This reduces
the attack surface significantly.

There is already a configuration option for disabling macros, but it is not yet
exposed on the UI, see:
officecfg::Office::Common::Security::Scripting::DisableMacrosExecution

Something similar for the others could be added.
