Description

This module exploits a vulnerability found in Apple QuickTime. When handling
a TeXML file, it is possible to trigger a stack-based buffer overflow, and then
gain arbitrary code execution under the context of the user. This is due to the
QuickTime3GPP.gtx component not handling certain Style subfields properly, storing
user-supplied data on the stack, which results the overflow.
