CVE-2009-0003
Heap-based buffer overflow in Apple QuickTime before 7.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application termination) and execute arbitrary code via an AVI movie file with an invalid nBlockAlign value in the _WAVEFORMATEX structure.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (9.40%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
