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 allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted FlashPix (FPX) file. This triggers an exception that leads to an operation on an uninitialized object, potentially resulting in 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 issue is resolved. Restrict access to potentially malicious FlashPix files to minimize the risk of exploitation.
