It is exploited to deliver malware to system folders such as Startup (%APPDATA%\\Microsoft\\Windows\\Start Menu\\Programs\\Startup), for persistence.\n\n-ame}\"\nwith openThe archive contains a decoy file with ADS, the names of which include the sequences ..\\ for traversal. When extracting, WinRAR places the stream content in the traversed path.\n- \u2699\ufe0fTechniques: Path traversal + NTFS ADS to hide the payload.\n- \u2757Danger: Automatically launches malware on reboot without notifying the user.\n\n\ud83d\udfe9Usage:\nInstall WinRAR (rar.exe in PATH).\nPrepare the payload (for example, a bat script: echo Malware > %TEMP%\\infected.txt).\nRun: python poc.py --decoy resume.txt --payload evil.bat --out exploit.rar\nUnpack exploit.rar in vulnerable WinRAR - the payload will end up in Startup.\n\n\ud83d\udfe5Disclaimer\nFor research only. The author is not responsible for misuse. Test in an isolated environment environment.\n\n\ud83d\udcc4Sources: ESET Research, NVD.\n",
