| VULNERABILITY DETAILS |
This vulnerability allows attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of QuickTime Player. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must either open a malicious file, or visit a malicious web page. The specific flaw exists during decompression of a delta-encoded chunk. The algorithm to decompress the frame trusts a line specifier when calculating where to write decompressed data. This results in a relative write using attacker supplied values which can lead to remove code execution under the context of the current user. |
