Advisory Content (Page 1 of 3)[ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ]

Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Apple QuickTime, which can be exploited by malicious people to potentially compromise a user's system.

1) An error in the parsing of H.264 movie files can be exploited to cause memory corruption.

2) An error in the parsing of MPEG-4 video files can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow.

3) An integer overflow error exists when processing the "SectorShift" and "cSectFat" fields of a FlashPix file header. This can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow via a specially crafted FlashPix (".fpx") file.

4) A boundary error exists when processing samples from a H.264 encoded MOV file. This can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow via a specially crafted MOV file.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerabilities may allow execution of arbitrary code.
