The "Save for Web" selection in QuickTime Player in Apple Mac OS X through 10.6.8 exports HTML documents that contain an http link to a script file, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks by spoofing the http server during local viewing of an exported document.

Security readout for executives and security teams

QuickTime Player’s “Save for Web” feature on Mac OS X through 10.6.8 could create HTML that loaded a script over insecure HTTP. If an attacker could intercept that traffic while the exported file was viewed locally, they could inject script into the page context. Exposure appears limited to legacy Mac OS X systems through 10.6.8 using QuickTime Player’s Save for Web export output. Modern environments are unlikely to be affected unless old systems or archived generated HTML remain in use. Prioritize this as legacy cleanup, not an emergency, unless the organization still operates Mac OS X 10.6.8 or hosts old QuickTime-generated exports. The business risk is narrow but avoidable. Mitigation focus: Identify Mac OS X systems at or below 10.6.8.; Check Apple advisory HT5016 and HT5002 for vendor update guidance.; Avoid using vulnerable Save for Web exported HTML from legacy QuickTime Player..
