Description
Format string vulnerability in iMovie HD 6.0.3, and Safari in Apple Mac OS X 10.4 through 10.4.10, allows remote user-assisted attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via format string specifiers in a filename, which is not properly handled when calling the NSRunCriticalAlertPanel Apple AppKit function.
