CVE-2013-1024
CoreMedia Playback in Apple Mac OS X before 10.8.4 does not properly initialize memory during the processing of text tracks, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted movie file.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.91%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
