WinRAR < 7.00 Multiple Vulnerabilities

medium Nessus Plugin ID 192940

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Windows host has an application installed which is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The remote host is running WinRAR, an archive manager for Windows, whose reported version is prior to 7.00. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilties:

- The vulnerability exists due to an error within the archive extraction functionality. A remote attacker can use a specially crafted archive to bypass the Mark-Of-The-Web protection mechanism and potentially compromise the affected system. (CVE-2024-30370)

- RARLAB WinRAR before 7.00, on Windows, allows attackers to spoof the screen output via ANSI escape sequences, a different issue than CVE-2024-33899. (CVE-2024-36052)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to WinRAR version 7.00 or later.
