libreoffice version upgrade with Alfresco 7.4.0

ysumity — Thu, 06 Mar 2025 11:45:54 GMT

We have Alfresco 7.4.0 which has LibreOffice 7.2 which has libcurl.so.4 version 7.79.1.

I need to update libcurl version to 8.4.0 as 7.79.1 has some vulnerabilities.

As far as i have checked online to upgrade libcurl i need to upgrade LibreOffice which has libcurl version 8.4.0.

I wanted to know if someone has faced same issue and done this before?

Is there any dependency of Alfresco 7.4.0 with LibreOffice version?

If we are talking about the community version of alfresco 7.4 and we are in a docker/docker-compose environment, the only solution I can propose at the moment is to download the project https://github.com/Alfresco/alfresco-transform-core/ and update the java Libreoffice library and related linux tools, and replace the tranformer-aio container with the one compiled from you.

If you feel there is a security issue you can try opening an issue on the gihub project, usually security issues tend to be resolved.

We are not using docker compose, we have used install with zip option.

No tested then, but same concept download the project https://github.com/Alfresco/alfresco-transform-core/ and update the java Libreoffice library and related linux tools, and replace the tranformer-aio on the community zip
