Positive Technologies (AI Summary)

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 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted FlashPix file. A local overflow exists due to the program's failure to validate FlashPix files, resulting in a buffer or integer overflow. This can be exploited with a specially crafted request, leading to arbitrary code execution and a loss of integrity.

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 FlashPix files until the update is applied. Restrict access to untrusted FlashPix files to minimize the risk of exploitation.
