ITunes

No change in size, 13:33, 3 August 2011
Updated ITunes version to 10.4.0
* Apple is also known to sometimes modify the setup packages of their programs even at minor version changes, so do not blindly assume that a new ITunes installer will work the same way as the old one did!
* '''Warning''': The version of Quicktime that is bundled with ITunes is '''not''' necessarily the newest version available and may contain known security flaws. For example ITunes 9.2.1.5 contained Quicktime 7.66, although Quicktime 7.67 had already been released since weeks at that time. Quicktime 7.66 has a highly critical security flaw that allows for remote execution of arbitrary code, simply by visiting a webpage ([http://secunia.com/advisories/40729 secunia.com]). If you encounter such a scenario, you will have to download the standalone Quicktime installer from Apple and extract the file QuickTime.msi from there. Alternatively you can use the minimal ITunes installation method below, which removes the Quicktime browser plugin and thereby mitigates the attack surface.
* There is a 64bit version of ITunes available too. As of version 10.34.0.54 80 the 64bit installer contains 64bit versions of ITunes itself and Apple Mobile Device Support and 32bit versions of Quicktime and Apple Application Support. The package definitions for the 64bit versions look basically the same as below, just the paths and GUIDs are different.
