Descriptions

The CallComponentFunctionWithStorage function in Apple QuickTime before 7.5.5 does not properly handle a large entry in the sample_size_table in STSZ atoms, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) via a crafted movie file.

La función CallComponentFunctionWithStorage en Apple QuickTime anterior a 7.5.5 no maneja adecuadamente una entrada larga en el sample_size_table en "átomos" STSZ, lo que permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (corrupción de memoria y caída de aplicación) a través de un archivo de película modificado.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Apple QuickTime. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.
The specific flaw exists in the handling of STSZ atoms within the function CallComponentFunctionWithStorage(). When an entry in the sample_size_table is too large, a memory corruption occurs which can be further leveraged to execute arbitrary code under the context of the current user.
