Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-04-10 22:57Stack-based buffer overflow in Indeo.qtx in Apple QuickTime before 7.5 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or execute arbitrary code via crafted Indeo video codec content in a movie file. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.The specific flaw exists within the parsing of Quicktime files that utilize the Indeo video codec. A lack of proper bounds checking within Indeo.qtx can result in a stack based buffer overflow leading to arbitrary code execution under the context of the currently logged in user. These issues arise when the application handles specially crafted PICT image files, Indeo video content, movie files, 'file:' URIs, and AAC-encoded media. Successful exploits may allow attackers to gain remote unauthorized access in the context of a vulnerable user; failed exploits will cause denial-of-service conditions. Versions prior to QuickTime 7.5 are affected. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
