Summary

WinRAR may insecurely load executable files

Details

WinRAR contains a function where user specified files on the local disk can be executed. When this file does not have a file extension, a file of the same name with a file extension contained in the same folder may be executed by WinRAR instead of the user specified file. WinRAR also contains a function where registry settings can be saved and registry settings can be recovered from files. If the folder displayed on screen contains an executable file, such as REGEDIT.BAT, when attempting to save or recover registry settings, REGEDIT.BAT is executed instead of the Windows registry editor (regedit.exe).
