Descriptions

QuickTime in Apple Mac OS X 10.6.x before 10.6.5 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) via a crafted AVI file.

QuickTime en Apple Mac OS X v10.6.x anterior v10.6.5 permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código de su elección o causar una denegación de servicio (corrupción de memoria y caída de aplicación) a través de un fichero AVI manipulado.

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 within the code responsible for parsing rec chunks within an AVI media file. By modifying specific values within the data structure a heap corruption condition can be triggered. An attacker can abuse this to execute arbitrary code under the context of the user running QuickTime.
