Trust: 0.6

sources: CNNVD: CNNVD-200505-1006

The problem is that Quartz Composer compositions embedded in ".mov" files can access certain system information, which can be disclosed to web sites via JavaScript. This can e.g. be exploited to disclose the local username and directory information by tricking a user into visiting a malicious web site. SOLUTION: Disable the QuickTime browser plugin and do not open ".mov" and Quartz Composer files from untrusted sources.
