## Introduction
**From the CVE-2018-20250 NVD Page**:
In WinRAR versions prior to and including 5.61, there is a path traversal vulnerability when crafting the filename field of the ACE format (in UNACEV2.dll). When the filename field is manipulated with specific patterns, the destination (extraction) folder is ignored, thus treating the filename as an absolute path.
This module will attempt to extract a payload to the startup folder of the current user. It is limited such that we can only go back one folder. Therefore, for this exploit to work properly, the user must extract the supplied RAR file from one folder within the user profile folder (e.g. Desktop or Downloads). User restart is required to gain a shell.
## Vulnerable Applications
- RARLAB WinRAR <= 5.61
## Verification Steps
1. Start msfconsole
2. Do: `use exploit/windows/fileformat/winrar_ace`
3. Do: `set FILENAME [FILENAME]`. Name is `msf.ace` by default.
4. Optional: Do: `set CUSTFILE [CUSTFILE]` to use a custom payload.
5. Optional: Do: `set PAYLOAD [PAYLOAD]`. `windows/meterpreter/reverse_tcp` by default. Skip if using a custom payload.
6. Configure your payload if using a Metasploit-provided payload. Skip if using a custom payload.
7. Optional: Do: `set FILE_LIST [FILE_LIST]` to provide a list of other files to add to the ACE archive.
8. Do: `exploit`
9. **Verify** that a file is created (by default in `~/.msf4/local/`) and that it passes `**acefile.py**`'s checks
## Options
**FILENAME**
Filename to output. Default is `msf.ace`. Other extensions like `rar` and `zip` can be used as WinRAR parses files by their headers and not by extension.
**CUSTFILE**
Optional. Custom payload to use. Can be anything. Just be aware that some files are not *meant* to be executed in case you're wondering why the shellz ain't poppin'.
**FILE_LIST**
Optional. A list of other files to be included in the resulting ACE archive. The specified file must contain full paths to other files. Compression is NOT taking place. This can be used to make the output file seem more realistic.
## Examples
- Tested on a Windows Server 2019 Datacenter x64, fully patched, with WinRAR 5.61
### Test with autogenerated payload, no additional files in archive
