On Tuesday, Apple posted the complete list of security issues addressed with QuickTime 7.5.5 to its list server.
The fixes were for both Mac OS X and Windows systems and were described as follows:
QuickTime CVE-ID: CVE-2008-3615 Available for: Windows Vista, XP SP2 and SP3
Impact: Viewing a maliciously crafted movie file may lead to an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution Description: An uninitialized memory access issue exists in the third-party Indeo v5 codec for QuickTime, which does not ship with QuickTime. Viewing a maliciously crafted movie file may lead to an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution. This update addresses the issue by not rendering content encoded with any version of the Indeo codec. This issue does not affect systems running Mac OS X.

QuickTime CVE-ID: CVE-2008-3635 Available for: Windows Vista, XP SP2 and SP3
Impact: Viewing a maliciously crafted movie file may lead to an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution Description: A stack buffer overflow exists in the third-party Indeo v3.2 codec for QuickTime. Viewing a maliciously crafted movie file may lead to an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution. This update addresses the issue by not rendering content encoded with any version of the Indeo codec. This issue does not affect systems running Mac OS X.

QuickTime CVE-ID: CVE-2008-3624 Available for: Mac OS X v10.4.9 - v10.4.11, Mac OS X v10.5 or later, Windows Vista, XP SP2 and SP3
Impact: Viewing a maliciously crafted QTVR movie file may lead to an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution Description: A heap buffer overflow exists in QuickTimeis handling of panorama atoms in QTVR (QuickTime Virtual Reality) movie files. Viewing a maliciously crafted QTVR file may lead to an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution. This update addresses the issue through improved bounds checking of panorama atoms. Credit to Roee Hay of IBM Rational Application Security Research Group for reporting this issue.

Impact: Viewing a maliciously crafted QTVR movie file may lead to an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution Description: A stack buffer overflow exists in QuickTimeis handling of panorama atoms in QTVR (QuickTime Virtual Reality) movie files. Viewing a maliciously crafted QTVR file may lead to an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution. This update addresses the issue through improved bounds checking of panorama atoms. Credit to an anonymous researcher working with TippingPointis Zero Day Initiative for reporting this issue.
QuickTime CVE-ID: CVE-2008-3614 Available for: Windows Vista, XP SP2 and SP3
Impact: Opening a maliciously crafted PICT image may lead to an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution Description: An integer overflow exists in QuickTimeis handling of PICT images. Opening a maliciously crafted PICT image may lead to an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution. This update addresses the issue by performing additional validation of PICT images. Credit to an anonymous researcher working with the iDefense VCP for reporting this issue.
QuickTime CVE-ID: CVE-2008-3626 Available for: Mac OS X v10.4.9 - v10.4.11, Mac OS X v10.5 or later, Windows Vista, XP SP2 and SP3
Impact: Viewing a maliciously crafted movie file may lead to an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution Description: A memory corruption issue exists in QuickTimeis handling of STSZ atoms in movie files. Viewing a maliciously crafted movie file may lead to an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution. This update addresses the issue through improved bounds checking of STSZ atoms. Credit to an anonymous researcher working with TippingPointis Zero Day Initiative for reporting this issue.
QuickTime CVE-ID: CVE-2008-3627 Available for: Mac OS X v10.4.9 - v10.4.11, Mac OS X v10.5 or later, Windows Vista, XP SP2 and SP3
Impact: Viewing a maliciously crafted movie file may lead to an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution Description: Multiple memory corruption exist in QuickTimeis handling of H.264 encoded movie files. Viewing a maliciously crafted movie file may lead to an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution. This update addresses the issue by performing additional validation of H.264 encoded movie files.
