DESCRIPTION:
Apple has reported multiple vulnerabilities in Apple iTunes, which
can be exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive
information, manipulate certain data, conduct cross-site scripting
and spoofing attacks, bypass certain security restrictions, and
compromise a user's system.

Multiple vulnerabilities exist within the WebKit and ColorSync
components.

For more information:
SA44375 (#8)
SA45097 (#2)
SA45325
SA45498
SA45698 (#2)
SA46049 (#11)
SA46171 (#6)

1) An error in the CoreFoundation component when handling string
tokenization can be exploited to corrupt memory via a MitM
(Man-in-the-Middle) attack.

2) An error in the CoreAudio component when handling Advanced Audio
Coding (AAC) streams can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow.

NOTE: Vulnerabilities #1 and #2 do not affect the application on OS X
Lion systems.

3) An error in the CoreMedia component when handling H.264 encoded
movie files can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow.

4) Some errors in the WebKit component when using the
AddressSanitizer can be exploited to corrupt memory.

5) Multiple unspecified errors in the WebKit component can be
exploited to corrupt memory.

Successful exploitation of vulnerabilities #1 through #5 may allow
execution of arbitrary code.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 10.5.
