Original Bulletin: http://security-protocols.com/advisory/sp-x21-advisory.txt
                   http://secunia.com/advisories/18149/

OVERVIEW:

        Vulnerabilities in Apple QuickTime and Apple iTunes MOV file
        processing may allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code
        or cause a denial of service if they can trick a user into opening
        a specially crafted MOV file.
	

IMPACT:

        An attacker could execute arbitrary code or commands on an affected
        machine by sending a specially crafted MOV file to a user on that
        machine.


MITIGATION:

        At the time of writing this vulnerability has yet to be patched.
        Currently the only mitigation is to avoid opening MOV files from
        untrusted sources.
