QuickTime 7.0.3 delivers the following security enhancements:

CVE-ID: CVE-2005-2753
Available for: Mac OS X v10.3.9 or later, Windows 2000/XP
Impact: An integer overflow may be exploitable via remotely
originated content
Description: A sign extension of an embedded "Pascal" style string
could result in a very large memory copy. The update treats the
string as having unsigned length. Credit to Piotr Bania
(bania.piotr@gmail.com) for reporting this issue.

CVE-ID: CVE-2005-2754
Available for: Mac OS X v10.3.9 or later, Windows 2000/XP
Impact: An integer overflow may be exploitable via remotely
originated content
Description: Improper movie attributes could result in a very large
memory copy. The update checks for a valid non-zero size before
copying. Credit to Piotr Bania (bania.piotr@gmail.com) for reporting
this issue.

CVE-ID: CVE-2005-2755
Available for: Mac OS X v10.3.9 or later, Windows 2000/XP
Impact: A denial of service against any application loading
remotely-originated content
Description: A missing movie attribute is interpreted as an
extension, but the absence of the extension is not flagged as an
error, resulting in a de-reference of a NULL pointer. The update
requires either the movie attribute or the extension to be present
for a well-formed movie. Credit to Piotr Bania
(bania.piotr@gmail.com) for reporting this issue.

CVE-ID: CVE-2005-2756
Available for: Mac OS X v10.3.9 or later, Windows 2000/XP
Impact: Compressed PICT data may overwrite application memory from
remotely originated content
Description: Expansion of compressed PICT data could exceed the size
of the destination buffer. The update prevents decompressed data
from exceeding the destination buffer size. Credit to Piotr Bania
(bania.piotr@gmail.com) for reporting this issue.
