TITLE:
Apple QuickTime Multiple Vulnerabilities
Highly critical
Impact: System access
Where: From remote
VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/39133/
DESCRIPTION:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Apple QuickTime, which can
be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.
1) An error in the processing of QDM2 encoded audio content can be
exploited to trigger a memory corruption.
2) An error in the processing of QDMC encoded audio content can be
exploited to trigger a memory corruption.
3) An error in the processing of H.263 encoded movie files can be
exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow.
4) An error in the processing of H.261 encoded movie files can be
exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow.
5) An error when handling PICT images can be exploited to cause a
heap-based buffer overflow.
6) An error in the processing of H.264 encoded movie files can be
exploited to trigger a memory corruption.
7) An error in the processing of RLE encoded movie files can be
exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow.
8) An error in the processing of M-JPEG encoded movie files can be
exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow.
9) An error in the processing of Sorenson encoded movie files can be
exploited to trigger a memory corruption.
10) An integer overflow error in the processing of FlashPix encoded
movie files can be exploited to corrupt memory.
11) An error in the processing of FLC encoded movie files can be
exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow.
12) An error in the processing of MPEG encoded movie files can be
exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow.
13) An integer overflow error in the processing of PICT images can be
exploited to cause a memory corruption.
14) An error when handling color tables included in movie files can
be exploited to corrupt memory.
15) An error in the processing of PICT images can be exploited to
cause a heap-based buffer overflow.
16) An error in the processing of BMP images can be exploited to
trigger a memory corruption.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerabilities may allow execution of
arbitrary code.
The vulnerabilities are reported in versions prior to 7.6.6.
SOLUTION:
Update to version 7.6.6.
