Perhaps the solution to the problem is to dump Quick Time and download VLC Media Player. Open source, non-propritary, supports just about every type of input and output media there is and, best of all, it's Free!!.

Uh, the Month of Apple Bugs #2 bug is a similar buffer overflow in VLC...

This one requires an installed working Perl interpreter to work. Again, not something installed in the default OS X installation.

The other question is why is a bug in VLC an Apple bug???

I'm pretty sure perl is standard and part of the basic install on Mac OS X.
