Descriptions

Heap-based buffer overflow in Apple QuickTime before 7.7 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via crafted STTS atoms in a QuickTime movie file.

Desbordamiento de buffer basado en memoria dinámica en Apple QuickTime en versiones anteriores a 7.7 permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario o provocar una denegación de servicio (caída de la aplicación) a través de atoms STTS modificados en un archivo de película QuickTime.

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 way Quicktime handles invalid Sample Duration values in the Time-To-Sample atoms. This value is used in the calculation of a loop counter. If this counter is too big it will result in a heap overflow that can cause remote code execution under the context of the current user.
