Upgrade to 5.70 ASAP https://www.ghacks.net/2019/02/21/winrar-has-... e-fix/ WinRAR has a critical security bug: here is the fix by Martin Brinkmann on February 21, 2019 in Security - 33 comments WinRAR is a very popular software to create and extract archives on Windows and other supported operating systems. Part of its popularity comes from its support for different types of packing formats, another that the software's trial version never expires. A bug was discovered recently that affects all versions of WinRAR prior to 5.70. The bug, a remote code execution vulnerability, affects all WinRAR versions and thus all 500 million users that use the application. Security researchers discovered a flaw in a library that WinRAR uses to extract files from archives packed with the ACE format. Attackers can exploit the vulnerability by pushing specially prepared archives to user systems. The bug can be abused to extract the files into any folder on the system instead of the folder selected by the user or the default folder for extracted files. --- Platinum Xpress/Win/WINServer v7.0 * Origin: Inland Utopia BBS * Ontario, CA * iutopia.dtdns.net (1:218/109) |
