CVE-2014-1243

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Apple QuickTime versions prior to 7.7.5

Description The issue is related to the lack of initialization of an unspecified pointer, which can be exploited by remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service, resulting in an application crash. This can be achieved through a crafted track list in a movie file.

Recommendations For Apple QuickTime versions prior to 7.7.5, update to version 7.7.5 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider avoiding the use of movie files from untrusted sources until the update is applied.
