CVE-2007-0015

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Apple QuickTime version 7.1.3

Description A buffer overflow issue exists, allowing remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long rtsp:// URI. The rtsp:// handler fails to validate a supplied URL string, resulting in a stack overflow. With a specially crafted URL, an attacker can cause arbitrary code execution, leading to a loss of integrity.

Recommendations For Apple QuickTime version 7.1.3, consider disabling the rtsp:// handler until a patch is available to prevent potential exploitation. Restrict access to the vulnerable module to minimize the risk of arbitrary code execution. Avoid using long rtsp:// URIs in the affected QuickTime version until the issue is resolved.
