Apple QuickTime Multiple Vulnerabilities

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA17428

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/17428/

CRITICAL:
Highly critical

IMPACT:
DoS, System access

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
Apple QuickTime 7.x
http://secunia.com/product/5090/
Apple Quicktime 6.x
http://secunia.com/product/810/

DESCRIPTION:
Piotr Bania has reported some vulnerabilities in Apple QuickTime,
which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of
Service) and potentially to compromise a user's system.

1) An integer overflow error exists in the handling of a "Pascal"
style string when loading a ".mov" video file. This can result in
memory overwrite due to a large memory copy, potentially allowing
arbitrary code execution via a specially crafted video file.

2) An integer overflow error exists in the handling of certain movie
attributes when loading a ".mov" video file. This can result in
memory overwrite due to a large memory copy, potentially allowing
arbitrary code execution via a specially crafted video file.

3) A NULL pointer dereferencing error exists when handling certain
missing movie attributes from a video file. This may be exploited to
crash an application that uses QuickTime when a specially crafted
video file is loaded.

4) A boundary error exists in the QuickTime PictureViewer when
decompressing PICT data. This may be exploited to cause a memory
overwrite, potentially allowing arbitrary code execution via a
specially crafted PICT picture file.

The vulnerabilities have been reported in the following versions:
* QuickTime version 6.5.2 and 7.0.1 for Mac OS X.
* QuickTime versions 7.x prior to 7.0.3 for Windows.

Prior versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 7.0.3.
