CVE-2007-1008

First published: Tue Feb 20 2007(Updated: )

Apple iTunes 7.0.2 allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted XML list of radio stations, which results in memory corruption. NOTE: iTunes retrieves the XML document from a static URL, which requires an attacker to perform DNS spoofing or man-in-the-middle attacks for exploitation.
