QuickTime Player Streaming Debug Error Logging Buffer Overflow Vulnerability. Successful exploitation could allow attackers to cause a stack-based buffer overflow by tricking a user into viewing a specially crafted web page that references a SMIL file containing an overly long URL. The flaw is due to a boundary error in 'QuickTimeStreaming.qtx' when constructing a string to write to a debug log file. Upgrade to QuickTime Player version 7.6.7 or late
