NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libquicktime package and not the libquicktime package as distributed by Ubuntu.

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.
