The lqt_frame_duration function in lqt_quicktime.c in libquicktime 1.2.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (invalid memory read and application crash) via a crafted mp4 file.

The remote Ubuntu 16.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-4545-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that libquicktime incorrectly handled certain malformed MP4 files. If a user were     tricked into opening a specially crafted MP4 file, a remote attacker could use this issue to cause a     denial of service (resource exhaustion). (CVE-2017-9122)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

CVE-2017-9122

The quicktime_read_moov function in moov.c in libquicktime 1.2.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop and CPU consumption) via a crafted mp4 file.

CVE-2017-9123

The lqt_frame_duration function in lqt_quicktime.c in libquicktime 1.2.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (invalid memory read and application crash) via a crafted mp4 file.

CVE-2017-9124

The quicktime_match_32 function in util.c in libquicktime 1.2.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) via a crafted mp4 file.

CVE-2017-9125

The lqt_frame_duration function in lqt_quicktime.c in libquicktime 1.2.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer over-read) via a crafted mp4 file.

CVE-2017-9126

The quicktime_read_dref_table function in dref.c in libquicktime 1.2.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow and application crash) via a crafted mp4 file.

CVE-2017-9127

The quicktime_user_atoms_read_atom function in useratoms.c in libquicktime 1.2.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow and application crash) via a crafted mp4 file.

CVE-2017-9128

The quicktime_video_width function in lqt_quicktime.c in libquicktime 1.2.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer over-read and application crash) via a crafted mp4 file.

For Debian 7 'Wheezy', these problems have been fixed in version 2:1.2.4-3+deb7u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your libquicktime packages.
