+ <background>
+ <p>RAR and UnRAR provide command line interfaces for compressing and decompressing RAR files.</p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>Due to an error in the validation of symbolic links within archives, RAR and UnRAR can potentially write files to a directory which is outside of the intended unpack directory.</p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>If the user running RAR or UnRAR extracts a malicious archive, the archive could overwrite a file such as the user&#39;s shell initialization scripts, potentially resulting in arbitrary code execution in the context of that user.</p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>All RAR users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
+
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-arch/rar-6.23"
+ </code>
