| Vetor | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Apple QuickTime versions prior to 7.1
Description
The issue is related to a heap-based buffer overflow that can be triggered by a crafted BMP file. This overflow occurs in the
ReadBMP function, which fails to properly validate input, resulting in a heap overflow. An attacker can cause the application to crash and potentially execute arbitrary code on the victim's system, leading to a loss of integrity. The estimated number of potentially affected devices and details about real-world incidents are not specified.Recommendations
For Apple QuickTime versions prior to 7.1, update to version 7.1 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider avoiding the use of the
ReadBMP function until a patch is available. Restrict access to BMP files to minimize the risk of exploitation.Exploit
