RAR and UnRAR provide command line interfaces for compressing and + decompressing RAR files. +

+
+ +

A VMSF_DELTA memory corruption was discovered in which an integer + overflow can be caused in DataSize+CurChannel. The result is a negative + value of the “DestPos” variable which allows writing out of bounds + when setting Mem[DestPos]. +

+
+ +

A remote attacker, by enticing a user to open a specially crafted + archive, could execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the process. +

+
+ +

There is no known workaround at this time.

All RAR users should upgrade to the latest version:
