What is the link to Secunia's statement. I have done a web search
and did not find what you said. Last summer, there was an issue. There
was also a solution: upgrade to a specified version. Recently, there is
the CVE-2012-0037 security issue. Upgrading to 3.4.6 if using 3.4.5 or
upgrading to 3.5.1 from 3.5.0 will solve the problem as well.
Sounds to me that the most recent updates for LibreOffice are
secure for now. Possibly some time in the future, some other security
issues will arise. But this will give the developers time to continue
working on the code weeding potential problems before they become real
problems.
