Synopsis
========

An integer overflow in RAR and UnRAR might allow remote attackers to
execute arbitrary code.

Background
==========

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

Affected packages
=================

    -------------------------------------------------------------------
     Package              /     Vulnerable     /            Unaffected
    -------------------------------------------------------------------
  1  app-arch/rar           < 5.5.0_beta4_p20170628>=
 5.5.0_beta4_p20170628
  2  app-arch/unrar               < 5.5.5                    >= 5.5.5
    -------------------------------------------------------------------
     2 affected packages

Description
===========

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].

Impact
======

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

Workaround
==========

There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution
==========

All RAR users should upgrade to the latest version:

  # emerge --sync
  # emerge --ask --oneshot -v ">=app-arch/rar-5.5.0_beta4_p20170628"

All UnRAR users should upgrade to the latest version:

  # emerge --sync
  # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-arch/unrar-5.5.5"
