CVE-2011-0252

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Apple QuickTime versions prior to 7.7

Description The issue is related to a heap-based buffer overflow that can be triggered by crafted STTS atoms in a QuickTime movie file, allowing remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service, resulting in an application crash.

Recommendations For versions prior to 7.7, update to version 7.7 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider avoiding the use of crafted QuickTime movie files that contain malicious STTS atoms until the update is applied.
