This must be an unintentional repost, surely?

From the description of CAN-2004-0431:

Integer overflow in Apple QuickTime (QuickTime.qts) before 6.5.1
allows attackers to execute arbitrary code

  That's a totally different issue, the bug described in the original post 
isn't an integer overflow.  I would imagine the author of that post used one 
of eEye's earlier QT bug reports as a template and just forgot to update the 
CAN number.  If you check their website

http://www.eeye.com/html/research/advisories/AD20060111b.html

you'll see they've corrected both the AD number and the CAN number.


    cheers,
