InfoSec Handlers Diary Blog

A Dutch reader, G. Smit, gave us a heads up about a remotely exploitable vulnerability in Quicktime which can be exploited by malformed .mov files.

There is some information available at Offensive-security blog, in Dutch  at security.nl, Fortiguard also shows the vulnerability.  Securityfocus has also updated Bugtraq 32540.

 Although neither Fortiguard or Securityfocus show the latest version of Quicktime, 7.6.5, as being vulnerable,  we are getting reports that the exploit crashes 7.6.5.
