Descriptions
Apple QuickTime before 7.5.5 does not properly handle (1) MDAT atoms in MP4 video files within QuickTimeH264.qtx, (2) MDAT atoms in mov video files within QuickTimeH264.scalar, and (3) AVC1 atoms in an unknown media type within an unspecified component, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (heap corruption and application crash) via a crafted, H.264 encoded movie file.
Apple QuickTime anterior a 7.5.5 , no maneja adecuadamente (1) los átomos MDAT de los ficheros de vídeo MP4 en QuickTimeH264.qtx, (2) los átomos MDAT de los ficheros mov de vídeo en QuickTimeH264.scalar y (3) los átomos AVC1 en un tipo de medio desconocido de un componente no especificado; esto permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código de su elección o provocar una denegación de servicio (corrupción de la cabecera y caída de la aplicación) a través de un fichero de película manipulado y codificado con H.264.
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 parsing of mov video files in QuickTimeH264.scalar. A maliciously crafted MDAT atom can cause a heap corruption resulting in the execution of arbitrary code under the context of the current user.
