Descriptions
Buffer overflow in Apple QuickTime before 7.7.2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted movie file with RLE encoding.
Desbordamiento de búfer en Apple QuickTime antes de v7.7.2 permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario o causar una denegación de servicio (caída de aplicación) a través de un archivo de película modificada que contenga la codificación RLE.
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Apple QuickTime Player. 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 how the application decodes video samples encoded with the RLE codec. When decompressing the sample, the application will fail to accommodate for the canvas the sample is rendered into. This can cause a buffer overflow and thus can be taken advantage of in order to gain code execution under the context of the application.
