Multiple QuickTime Critical Vulnerabilities Patched

Apple has released an update for QuickTime that addresses several critical security flaws that could allow an attacker to launch a buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on your computer. You can view the complete list of vulnerabilities here.


A heap buffer overflow exists in QuickTime's handling of RTSP URLs. Accessing a maliciously crafted RTSP URL may lead to an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution. This update addresses the issue by performing additional validation of RTSP URLs. Credit to Attila Suszter for reporting this issue.
