Heap-based buffer overflow in Apple iTunes before 7.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or execute arbitrary code via crafted album cover art in the covr atom of an MP4/AAC file.
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
