Apple QuickTime PICT Unspecified Tag Heap Overflow Vulnerability

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Apple QuickTime. 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 when the application parses a malformed .PICT image. While decoding a tag 0x77 in the image, the application misuses a 16-bit length when allocating tag data. When copying tag data into this buffer, a heap overflow occurs. This can lead to code execution under the context of the current user.
