User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within how the application parses a header containing codec-specific data. When handling an error case, the application will forget to initialize a pointer which will later be used in a memory operation. This can lead to code execution under the context of the application. - -- Vendor Response: Apple has issued an update to correct this vulnerability. More details can be found at: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1222 - -- Disclosure Timeline: 2011-10-21 - Vulnerability reported to vendor 2012-08-03 - Coordinated public release of advisory - -- Credit: This vulnerability was discovered by: * Luigi Auriemma * pa_kt / twitter.com/pa_kt / e1c14ba6 - -- About the Zero Day Initiative (ZDI): Established by TippingPoint, The Zero Day Initiative (ZDI) represents a best-of-breed model for rewarding security researchers for responsibly disclosing discovered vulnerabilities.
