Multiple heap-based buffer overflows in the AudioCodecs library in the CoreAudio component in Apple iPhone OS before 3.1, and iPhone OS before 3.1.1 for iPod touch, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted (1) AAC or (2) MP3 file, as demonstrated by a ringtone with malformed entries in the sample size table.
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.
