This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability in the Apple's QuickTime media player. A successful attack can lead to a buffer overflow and arbitrary remote code execution within the context of the affected application.
Apple QuickTime is prone to an integer-overflow vulnerability due to a failure to properly bounds-check user-supplied data. The problem occurs when handling a specially crafted movie file. Successful exploits may allow attackers to execute arbitrary code in the context of the currently logged-in user; failed exploit attempts may cause denial-of-service conditions. Versions prior to QuickTime 7.7.1 are vulnerable on Windows 7, Vista, and XP. NOTE: This issue was previously discussed in BID 50388 (Apple QuickTime Prior To 7.7.1 Multiple Arbitrary Code Execution Vulnerabilities) but has been given its own record to better document it.
