Unauthorized Access Attempt
Apple QuickTime is vulnerable to a stack-based buffer overflow, caused by improper bounds checking of the Real Time Streaming Protocol (RTSP) Content-Type header. By persuading a victim to connect to a specially-crafted RTSP stream, a remote attacker could overflow a buffer and execute arbitrary code on the system or cause the application to crash.
Upgrade to the latest version of Apple QuickTime (7.3.1 or later), available from the Apple Web site. See References.
