The vulnerability was discovered in the UNACEV2.DLL library of the popular Windows file compression application. A maliciously-crafted ACE archive file can be extracted into the Windows Startup folder to execute arbitrary code on a targeted system. An in-the-wild malspam email campaign is distributing a malicious RAR archive file that exploits the latest vulnerability to install malware on computers running the vulnerable version of the software.
