medium Nessus Plugin ID 22885

Synopsis

The remote FreeBSD host is missing a security-related update.

Description

The Apple Security Team reports that there are multiple vulnerabilities within QuickTime (one of the plugins for win32-codecs). A remote attacker capable of creating a malicious SGI image, FlashPix, FLC movie, or a QuickTime movie can possibly lead to execution of arbitrary code or cause a Denial of Service (application crash).

Users who have QuickTime (/win32-codecs) as a browser plugin may be vulnerable to remote code execution by visiting a website containing a malicious SGI image, FlashPix, FLC movie or a QuickTime movie.

Solution

Update the affected package.
