Descriptions

Buffer overflow in QuickDraw Manager in Apple Mac OS X before 10.8.4 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted PICT image.

Desbordamiento de búfer en QuickDraw Manager de Apple Mac OS X antes de v10.8.4 que permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario o causar una denegación de servicio (caída de aplicación) a través de una imagen PICT manipulada.

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 the LongComment PICT opcode. It converts an unsigned 16 bit value into a signed 32 bit value after it performs some mathematical operations on it. This value is later used as a size parameter for a memory copy function that copies from the file onto the heap. An attacker can leverage the situation to achieve remote code execution under the context of the user currently logged in.
