TITLE

Apple QuickTime Vulnerable to buffer overflow

DESCRIPTION

Buffer overflow in Apple QuickTime before 7.7.4 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via crafted dref atoms in a movie file. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.The specific flaw exists within the parsing of a MOV file. A dref atom can contain information specifying a past location of the MOV file. A value within this atom is used to determine how many bytes to copy into a buffer without ensuring that the value is smaller than the size of the buffer, resulting in an overflow. By abusing this behavior an attacker can ensure this memory is under control and leverage the situation to achieve remote code execution under the context of the user currently logged in. Versions prior to QuickTime 7.7.4 are vulnerable on Windows 7, Vista, and XP. Note: This issue was previously discussed in BID 60086 (Apple QuickTime Prior To 7.7.4 Multiple Arbitrary Code Execution Vulnerabilities), but has been moved to its own record for better documentation. Apple QuickTime is a multimedia playback software developed by Apple (Apple). The software is capable of handling multiple sources such as digital video, media segments, and more. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 APPLE-SA-2013-05-22-1 QuickTime 7.7.4 QuickTime 7.7.4 is now available and addresses the following: QuickTime Available for: Windows 7, Vista, XP SP2 or later Impact: Opening a maliciously crafted TeXML file may lead to an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution Description: A memory corruption issue existed in the handling of TeXML files.
