VAR-200705-0516
Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-04-10 23:01Apple QuickTime for Java 7.1.6 on Mac OS X and Windows does not properly restrict QTObject subclassing, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a web page containing a user-defined class that accesses unsafe functions that can be leveraged to write to arbitrary memory locations. Apple QuickTime for Java fails to properly clear memory. As a result, sensitive information may be exposed to unintended parties. This vulnerability may allow a remote, unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code on a vulnerable system. Apple QuickTime for Java is prone to a remote heap-based buffer-overflow vulnerability because the application fails to properly bounds-check user-supplied input prior to copying it to an insufficiently sized buffer. Failed exploit attempts will result in a denial of service. Apple QuickTime is a popular multimedia player that supports a wide variety of media formats. There is a loophole in the implementation of QuickTime, and a remote attacker may take advantage of this loophole to control the user's machine. If a user is tricked into visiting a Web page containing a specially crafted Java Applet, a heap overflow may be triggered, resulting in the execution of arbitrary instructions

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the
vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base
model, served locally by ML-Gateway.
They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
