VAR-200612-0014
Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-04-10 23:24QuickTime for Java on Mac OS X 10.4 through 10.4.8, when used with Quartz Composer, allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information (screen images) via a Java applet that accesses images that are being rendered by other embedded QuickTime objects. Apple Mac OS X is prone to an information-disclosure vulnerability. Attackers may exploit this issue by convincing victims into visiting a malicious website. If this tool is used in conjunction with Quartz Composer, it is possible to capture graphics containing local information.
Secunia is proud to announce the availability of the Secunia Software Inspector.
The Secunia Software Inspector is a free service that detects insecure versions of software that you may have installed in your system. When insecure versions are detected, the Secunia Software Inspector also provides thorough guidelines for updating the software to the latest secure version from the vendor.
