TITLE

Apple QuickTime Flash the film Multiple buffer overflow vulnerabilities

DESCRIPTION

Multiple buffer overflows in Apple QuickTime before 7.1 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted QuickTime Flash (SWF) file. Multiple integer-overflow and buffer-overflow vulnerabilities affect QuickTime. These issues affect both Mac OS X and Microsoft Windows releases of the software. Successful exploits will result in the execution of arbitrary code in the context of the currently logged-in user. Failed exploit attempts will likely cause denial-of-service conditions. Apple QuickTime is a popular multimedia player that supports a wide variety of media formats. An attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities by convincing a user to access a specially crafted image or media file with a vulnerable version of QuickTime. Since QuickTime configures most web browsers to handle QuickTime media files, an attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities using a web page. For more information, please refer to the Vulnerability Notes. II. For further information, please see the Vulnerability Notes. III. Disable QuickTime in your web browser An attacker may be able to exploit this vulnerability by persuading a user to access a specially crafted file with a web browser. Disabling QuickTime in your web browser will defend against this attack vector. For more information, refer to the Securing Your Web Browser document. Appendix A.

McAfee Avert\x99 Labs Security Advisory Public Release Date: 2006-05-11 Apple QuickDraw/QuickTime Multiple Vulnerabilities CVE-2006-1249, CVE-2006-1453, CVE-2006-1454, CVE-2006-1459, CVE-2006-1460, CVE-2006-1461, CVE-2006-1462, CVE-2006-1464, CVE-2006-1465 ______________________________________________________________________ * Synopsis Apple QuickTime and Apple QuickDraw are multimedia technologies used to process image, audio and video data. Two code execution vulnerabilities are present in QuickDraw PICT image format support. Twenty one code execution vulnerabilities are present in QuickTime support for various multimedia formats including: MOV, H.264, MPEG 4, AVI, FPX and SWF. In order for an attack to succeed user interaction is required and therefore the risk factor for these issues is medium. CVE-2006-1459 Seven integer overflow vulnerabilities are present in QuickTime MOV video format support. CVE-2006-1460 Five buffer overflow vulnerabilities are present in QuickTime MOV video format support. CVE-2006-1462 Three integer overflow vulnerabilities are presenting QuickTime H.264 (M4V) video format support. CVE-2006-1464 One buffer overflow vulnerability is present in QuickTime MPEG4 (M4P) video format support. CVE-2006-1465 One buffer overflow vulnerability is present in QuickTime AVI video format support. ______________________________________________________________________ * Legal Notice Copyright (C) 2006 McAfee, Inc.

This can be exploited to crash the application and potentially execute arbitrary code. 9) A boundary error within the processing of BMP images can be exploited via a specially crafted BMP image to crash the application and potentially execute arbitrary code.
