Malformed .MOV files can murder your movies

Two Borg assimilators have discovered five denial of service vulnerabilities in Apple’s QuickTime.
The five vulnerabilities (CVE-2015-3788 to 3792) affect the latest version of QuickTime up to the patched 7.7.7 for Windows 7.
Ryan Pentney and Richard Johnson of Cisco’s Talos security talon reported the memory corruption holes which manifest due to improper handling of objects in memory.
“An adversary who crafts a specifically formatted .MOV file can cause QuickTime to terminate unexpectedly, creating a local denial of service condition,” the pair says in an advisory.
“Apple has released a software update to address these defects in Quicktime and Talos has released coverage for these vulnerabilities.”
The holes include denial of service for invalid URL and mvhd atom sizes, and an invalid 3GPP stsd sample description entry size. An esds atom descriptor type length mismatch and mdat corruption round out the denial of service holes.
