Sorry I don't know where to find a link, only report what has happened today when I ran Secunia and 
got the error message. When you mouse over the Install Solution option it says ''Program is 
Insecure or End-Of-Life and requires a security patch to be manually installed''. The Install 
Solution is the latest version of LibreOffice but when that's installed, Secunia immediately 
reports it's an Insecure Program. I haven't come across this error before with LibreOffice so 
wanted to report it was popping up. Like I said I'm not a techie but just trying to be helpful. 
Sorry.
