Apple · Apple Quicktime · CVE-2005-2743
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Mac OS X versions 10.3.9 and earlier
QuickTime versions 6.52 and earlier
**Description**
The issue allows untrusted applets to call arbitrary functions in system libraries, which can lead to remote attackers executing arbitrary code. This flaw may result in a loss of integrity and potentially allow malicious users to gain access to unauthorized privileges.
**Recommendations**
For Mac OS X version 10.3.9 and earlier, consider disabling the Java extensions for QuickTime until a patch is available.
For QuickTime versions 6.52 and earlier, restrict the use of untrusted applets to minimize the risk of exploitation.
As a temporary workaround, consider disabling the ability for applets to call arbitrary functions from within system libraries until a fix is provided.
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
