CVSS v2.0

5.1

Medium

Base vector

AV:N/AC:H/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Apple QuickTime versions prior to 7.1.3

Description The issue is related to an integer overflow that occurs when handling crafted H.264 movie files. This allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code, potentially leading to a loss of integrity. The problem arises from the program's failure to properly validate H.264 movie files, resulting in a buffer or integer overflow.

Recommendations For Apple QuickTime versions prior to 7.1.3, update to version 7.1.3 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider avoiding the use of H.264 movie files until the update is applied. Restrict access to potentially malicious movie files to minimize the risk of exploitation.
