Descriptions

Apple QuickTime before 7.7.9 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow and application crash) via a crafted TXXX frame within an ID3 tag in MP3 data in a movie file, a different vulnerability than CVE-2015-7085, CVE-2015-7086, CVE-2015-7087, CVE-2015-7088, CVE-2015-7089, CVE-2015-7090, CVE-2015-7091, and CVE-2015-7117.

Apple QuickTime en versiones anteriores a 7.7.9 permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario o provocar una denegación de servicio (desbordamiento de buffer basado en memoria dinámica y caída de la aplicación) a través de un frame TXXX manipulado en una etiqueta ID3 en datos MP3 en un archivo movie, una vulnerabilidad diferente a CVE-2015-7085, CVE-2015-7086, CVE-2015-7087, CVE-2015-7088, CVE-2015-7089, CVE-2015-7090, CVE-2015-7091 y CVE-2015-7117.

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 parsing of ID3 version tags in MP3 files. By providing a malformed TXXX frame, an attacker can cause data to be written past the end of an allocated heap buffer. An attacker could leverage this to execute arbitrary code under the context of the current user.
