Hello,

i was a bit confused by the News about Zimbra.

Gentoo already fixed the Bug, but why we have two packages?


Code:
[I] app-arch/unrar
     Verfügbare Versionen:   6.1.7(0/6)
     Installierte Versionen: 6.1.7(0/6)(xx:xx:xx 2x.06.2022)
     Startseite:             https://www.rarlab.com/rar_add.htm
     Beschreibung:           Uncompress rar files


Code:
[I] app-arch/rar
     Verfügbare Versionen:   6.12^md {all-sfx}
     Installierte Versionen: 6.12^md(xx:xx:xx 2x.06.2022)(-all-sfx)
     Startseite:             https://www.rarlab.com/
     Beschreibung:           RAR compressor/uncompressor

rar Version 6.12 is fixed, i just was confused about unrar have a different Version Number. And as far as i understood, the Antivirus Server open rar packages... so the Version Number to defend an Attack by email should be unrar and not rar.

This post is just for the record and because i was a little confused about.

Thank you very much for your work, and have a good Summer! By the Way if you look for Jobs. Programming Algorithms to processing Big Data (Streams) is a hype right now.

They are seperate, and doesn't the link itself say that?

Am I affected?

The official security patch by RarLab is contained in the UnRar source code version 6.1.7 and is included with the binaries of version 6.12. Any previous version may be vulnerable. Only the Unix binaries (excluding Android) are affected by this vulnerability. WinRAR is free of this bug.

Thank you freke, you are right about. I just read first a German IT News Portal, and they missed to mention the two Versions about Unrar and rar. Thank you for answering and sorry for my post here. I'll take more time to read the Source precisely.
