vulnerability." );

"The remote host is running a version of iTunes which is older than
version 4.8.0. Such versions reportedly fail to perform certain 
validation checks on MPEG4 files, and hence it could be possible 
to trigger a buffer overflow condition. Successful exploitation of 
this issue could lead to a denial of service condition or arbitrary
code execution on the remote system." );
