Summary
Junrar is an open source java RAR archive library. Prior to version 7.5.8, a backslash path traversal vulnerability in `LocalFolderExtractor` allows an attacker to write arbitrary files with attacker-controlled content anywhere on the filesystem when a crafted RAR archive is extracted on Linux/Unix. This can often lead to remote code execution (e.g., overwriting shell profiles, source code, cron jobs, etc). Version 7.5.8 has a fix for the issue.

Antes de la versi\u00f3n 7.5.8, una vulnerabilidad de salto de ruta con barra invertida en \u0027LocalFolderExtractor\u0027 permite a un atacante escribir archivos arbitrarios con contenido controlado por el atacante en cualquier lugar del sistema de archivos cuando se extrae un archivo RAR manipulado en Linux/Unix. Esto a menudo puede conducir a la ejecuci\u00f3n remota de c\u00f3digo (por ejemplo, sobrescribiendo perfiles de shell, c\u00f3digo fuente, tareas cron, etc.).
