Synopsis

The remote host is vulnerable to a buffer overflow.

Description

The remote host is running iTunes - an application for managing and listening to music media files.
This version of iTunes is vulnerable to a buffer overflow due to the way that it processes malformed MP4/AAC files.

Successful exploitation would result in the attacker executing arbitrary code on the remote system.
