Screen shot of editing buffer after clicking middle button

On my Ubuntu 14 Linux 3.13.0-35 x86_64 system running LibreOffice 4.2.6.3 420m0(Build:3), I typed four characters:  

 a, enter, b, c

Then I positioned the mouse cursor after the A (the "a" converted to "A" when I pressed enter).  Then I pressed the left mouse button and moved the mouse cursor to between the b and c.  Then I released the left mouse button.

This highlighted the b and the first line except for A (see attachment).  Then I moved the mouse cursor to after the c, and pressed the center mouse button to paste the highlighted text.  Instead, it pasted enter, bc, enter, !!br0ken!! into the buffer, so the text was:

A
bc
bc
!!br0ken!!

To complete the bugtracker, could you provide these information?
1) which language UI do you use?
2) Did you install any LO specific extensions?
3) Did you test on a brand new file?
4) For the test, could you rename your LO directory profile (see https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/User_Profile#GNU.2FLinux) and give it a new try?

I can confirm this issue on a brand new file.

LinuxMint 17 Cinnamon (based on Ubuntu 14.04) (original Hungarian installation/UI/locales)
LO  4.2.6.3 Build id.: 420m0(Build:3)
(No LO specific extension.)

>1) which language UI do you use?

Tools/Options/Language Settings/Languages - User Interface shows:
Default - English (USA)

>2) Did you install any LO specific extensions?

Not to my knowledge.  Also, Tools/Extension Manager doesn't list any extensions.

>3) Did you test on a brand new file?

Yes.  Also, the first instance I saw of this problem occurred with a rather longer text string and a few more ops (eg other cut/paste ops that were ok), and as I tried shorter strings I arrived at the submitted instance.

console_bt with master sources

On pc Debian x86-64 with master sources updated today, I could reproduce the problem.

Thank you for your feedback J Waldby
I put it at NEW and increase a bit the importance.

I replied to 1-2-3 in a separate comment before noticing the Reply button.

I haven't done 4 yet but if it still matters will have time to 6-8 hours from now.

No need to answer back the last one since I could reproduce it with a brand new profile (since I built from scratch).

I'd just add, that the same hapened to me on Windows 8.1 too. LibreOffice Version: 4.3.0.4 Build ID: 62ad5818884a2fc2e5780dd45466868d41009ec0

I pasted sg from a pdf file and the text !!br0ken!! appeared in the pasted text. When I tried to paste the same text again, it worked well. So, unfortunately, I could not reproduce it.

This has the same cause as bug 82010

There's an even earlier duplicate of this - moving the duplicate reference to 63022
