Descriptions

Heap-based buffer overflow in Apple QuickTime before 7.7.2 on Windows allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted text track in a movie file.

Desbordamiento de búfer basado en memoria dinámica en antes de Apple QuickTime v7.7.2 permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario o causar una denegación de servicio (caída de aplicación) a través de una pista de texto manipulada en un archivo de película.

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 text track descriptors. Values for almost all of the text descriptors recognized by QuickTime will be read into a fixed-length buffer. This can lead to a heap-based buffer overflow which can result in remote code execution under the context of the current process.
