Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Junrar versions before 7.5.10 are vulnerable to a path traversal (zip-slip) flaw in the LocalFolderExtractor component. An attacker who supplies a crafted RAR archive that a user extracts can write files with attacker-controlled content into sibling directories of the extraction target, because path validation relies on a string prefix check. Upgrade to Junrar 7.5.10 or later. The source gives few further details.
