> Apple QuickTime Multiple Vulnerabilities
>
> SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
> SA17428
>
> VERIFY ADVISORY:
> http://secunia.com/advisories/17428/
>
> CRITICAL:
> Highly critical
>
> IMPACT:
> DoS, System access
>
> WHERE:
> >From remote
>
> SOFTWARE:
> Apple QuickTime 7.x
> http://secunia.com/product/5090/
> Apple Quicktime 6.x
> http://secunia.com/product/810/
>
> DESCRIPTION:
> Vulnerabilities in Apple QuickTime, which can be exploited by
> malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) and
> potentially to compromise a user's system.
>
> 1) An integer overflow error exists in the handling of a
> "Pascal" style string when loading a ".mov" video file. This
> can result in memory overwrite due to a large memory copy,
> potentially allowing arbitrary code execution via a specially
> crafted video file.
>
> 2) An integer overflow error exists in the handling of certain
> movie attributes when loading a ".mov" video file. This can
> result in memory overwrite due to a large memory copy,
> potentially allowing arbitrary code execution via a specially
> crafted video file.
>
> 3) A NULL pointer dereferencing error exists when handling
> certain missing movie attributes from a video file. This may be
> exploited to crash an application that uses QuickTime when a
> specially crafted video file is loaded.
>
> 4) A boundary error exists in the QuickTime PictureViewer when
> decompressing PICT data. This may be exploited to cause a
> memory overwrite, potentially allowing arbitrary code execution
> via a specially crafted PICT picture file.
>
> The vulnerabilities have been reported in the following
> versions:
> * QuickTime version 6.5.2 and 7.0.1 for Mac OS X.
> * QuickTime versions 7.x prior to 7.0.3 for Windows.
>
> Prior versions may also be affected.
