DESCRIPTION:
Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in QuickTime, which can
be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.

1) Some errors within the handling of TeXML files can be exploited to
cause stack-based buffer overflows.

2) An error within the handling of text tracks can be exploited to
cause a heap-based buffer overflow.

3) An error within the handling of H.264 encoded movie files can be
exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow.

4) An error exists within the parsing of MP4 encoded files.

For more information:
SA47843 (#26)

5) An off-by-one error can be exploited to cause a single byte buffer
overflow.

For more information:
SA47843 (#28)

6) An error when handling audio samples can be exploited to cause a
buffer overflow.

For more information:
SA49039 (#8)

7) An integer overflow error exists within the handling of MPEG
files.

For more information:
SA49039 (#9)

8) An error within the plugin's handling of QTMovie objects can be
exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow.

9) An error when parsing the MediaVideo header in videos encoded with
the PNG format can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow.

For more information:
SA47843 (#30)

10)  A signedness error within the handling of QTVR movie files can
be exploited to execute arbitrary code.

11) A use-after-free error exists when handling JPEG2000 encoded
movie files.

For more information:
SA49039 (#11)

12) An error within the handling of RLE encoded movie files can be
exploited to cause a buffer overflow.

13) An error when handling Sorenson encoded movie files can be
exploited to cause a buffer overflow.

14) An integer overflow error within the handling of sean atoms can
be exploited to execute arbitrary code.

15) An error within the DllMain module when parsing .pict files can
be exploited to corrupt memory.

16) A boundary error in QuickTime.qts when extending a file path
based on its short path form can be exploited to cause a stack-based
buffer overflow via an overly long, specially crafted file path.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires that a user is
e.g. tricked into opening a file in a specially crafted path.

17) An error when handling MPEG files can be exploited to cause a
buffer underflow.

For more information:
SA49039 (#10)

The vulnerabilities are reported in versions prior to 7.7.2.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 7.7.2.
