CVE-2012-0661
Use-after-free vulnerability in QuickTime in Apple Mac OS X 10.7.x before 10.7.4 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted movie file with JPEG2000 encoding.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (3.13%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
