WinRAR 7.12 – Final

WinRAR is a powerful archive manager for Windows, Linux, Mac. This is a powerful compression tool with many integrated additional functions to help you organize your compressed archives.

It can backup your data and reduce size of email attachments, decompress RAR, ZIP and other files downloaded from Internet and create new archives in RAR and ZIP file format. The archiver puts you ahead of the crowd when it comes to compression.

By consistently creating smaller archives, WinRAR is often faster than the competition. This will save you disc space, transmission costs AND valuable working time as well. WinRAR is ideal for multimedia files. It automatically recognizes and selects the best compression method.

The special compression algorithm compresses multimedia files, executables and object libraries particularly well. RAR files can usually compress content by 8% to 15% more than ZIP files can.

Changes in version 7.12:

• When extracting a file, previous versions of WinRAR, Windows versions of RAR, UnRAR, portable UnRAR source code and UnRAR.dll can be tricked into using a path, defined in a specially crafted archive, instead of user specified path.
  Unix versions of RAR, UnRAR, portable UnRAR source code and UnRAR library, also as RAR for Android, are not affected.
  We are thankful to whs3-detonator working with Trend Micro Zero Day Initiative for letting us know about this security issue.
• Previously “Generate report” command included archived file names into HTML report as is, allowing to inject potentially unsafe HTML tags into the report. To prevent such injection the current version replaces < and > file name characters in HTML report with < and > strings.We are thankful to Marcin Bobryk (github.com/MarcinB44) for bringing this security issue to our attention.
• If “Test archived files” and “recovery volumes” archiving options are used together, recovery volumes are also tested. Previous versions completed the test before creating recovery volumes, so they hadn’t been verified.
• Nanosecond file time precision is preserved for Unix file records when modifying RAR archive in Windows. Previously it was converted to Windows 100 nanosecond precision.

Changes in version 7.11:

• If “Add to archive…” Explorer context menu command is applied to multiple archives in the disk root, for example, d:\arc1.rar and d:\arc2.rar, WinRAR will propose arc1_rar.rar default name for a new archive. Previous version proposed arc1.rar, updating one of selected archives instead of creating a new one.
• Bugs fixed:
  • WinRAR 7.10 failed to update solid archives containing a folder record placed before a file record. It issued the checksum error message and aborted processing. As a result of this fix, this version preserves the original position of such folders after updating and doesn’t move them to the end of archive as WinRAR 7.10 did;
  • when extracting a file from CAB archive over an existing file, existing files were overwritten, but not truncated. So if existing file was larger than extracted, existing file data had been left at the end of the extracted file;
  • if SFX module from “Advanced SFX options” dialog was stored in the compression profile, it was applied as is, even if archive format was changed after selecting the profile. It could result in SFX module mismatching the archive format;
  • choosing a value in bytes from drop down list associated with archive dialog “Split to volumes, size” field didn’t set units to bytes automatically;
  • if SFX “TextDone” command was used together with “Silent” and “TempMode” commands, the completion message was sometimes displayed behind other opened windows;f) if symlink pointing at an executable was started from WinRAR shell, the executable Mark of the Web data was ignored. We are thankful to Shimamine Taihei of Mitsui Bussan Secure Directions, Inc for reporting this issue.
