This fixes [CVE-2018-1055][1]/[CVE-2018-6871][2]. [An exploit is available.][3].

[Description][4]:

> LibreOffice Calc supports a WEBSERVICE function to obtain data by URL.
> Vulnerable versions of LibreOffice allow WEBSERVICE to take a local file
> URL (e.g file://) which can be used to inject local files into the
> spreadsheet without warning the user. Subsequent formulas can operate on
> that inserted data and construct a remote URL whose path leaks the local
> data to a remote attacker.
>
> In later versions of LibreOffice without this flaw, WEBSERVICE has now
> been limited to accessing http and https URLs along with bringing
> WEBSERVICE URLs under LibreOffice Calc's link management infrastructure.
