The Cupertino-based company said Security Update 2007-001 -- its first security update of the 2007 calendar year -- plugs an exploit where QuickTime users visiting maliciously crafted websites could fall victim to arbitrary code execution.
"A buffer overflow exists in QuickTime's handling of RTSP URLs. By enticing a user to access a maliciously-crafted RTSP URL, an attacker can trigger the buffer overflow, which may lead to arbitrary code execution," the company said. "A QTL file that triggers this issue has been published on the Month of Apple Bugs web site (MOAB-01-01-2007)."
Apple added that its fix for the issue includes performing additional validation of RTSP URLs.
