Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in Apple QuickTime up to 7.1.4 (Multimedia Player Software) and classified as critical. This issue affects an unknown code block. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a stack-based overflow vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-121. A stack-based buffer overflow condition is a condition where the buffer being overwritten is allocated on the stack (i.e., is a local variable or, rarely, a parameter to a function). Impacted is integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

Stack-based buffer overflow in Apple QuickTime before 7.1.5 allows remote user-assisted attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted QTIF file.

The bug was discovered 03/05/2007. The weakness was released 03/05/2007 by Piotr Bania (TippingPoint) with TippingPoint and the Zero Day Initiative (Website). It is possible to read the advisory at us-cert.gov. The identification of this vulnerability is CVE-2007-0716 since 02/05/2007. The attack may be initiated remotely. No form of authentication is needed for a successful exploitation. The technical details are unknown and an exploit is not publicly available.

It is declared as proof-of-concept. The vulnerability scanner Nessus provides a plugin with the ID 24762 (Quicktime < 7.1.5 Multiple Vulnerabilities (Mac OS X)), which helps to determine the existence of the flaw in a target environment. It is assigned to the family MacOS X Local Security Checks and running in the context l. The commercial vulnerability scanner Qualys is able to test this issue with plugin 115523 (Apple QuickTime Multiple Vulnerabilities (APPLE-SA-2007-03-05)).

Upgrading to version 7.1.5 eliminates this vulnerability. A possible mitigation has been published even before and not after the disclosure of the vulnerability.

The vulnerability is also documented in the databases at X-Force (32822), Tenable (24762), SecurityFocus (BID 22827†), OSVDB (33900†) and Secunia (SA24359†). Entries connected to this vulnerability are available at VDB-2561, VDB-2972, VDB-34241 and VDB-35413. Statistical analysis made it clear that VulDB provides the best quality for vulnerability data.
