Cve-2025-8088 WinRAR

Python tool that creates a malicious RAR file to exploit the CVE-2025-8088 vulnerability in WinRAR. The CVE-2025-8088 vulnerability allows exploitation of manipulated RAR files to cause path traversal and overwrite arbitrary files on the victim's system. This project is for research and educational purposes only. It should not be used in production environments or for malicious purposes.

Installation

Clone the repository in cmd:

root@kitploit:~
git clone https://github.com/Shinkirou789/Cve-2025-8088-WinRar-vulnerability && cd Cve-2025-8088-WinRar-vulnerability

Clone the repository in powershell:

root@kitploit:~
git clone https://github.com/Shinkirou789/Cve-2025-8088-WinRar-vulnerability ; Set-Location Cve-2025-8088-WinRar-vulnerability

Usage

Run the script: You must provide the payload path with the -p/--payload parameter, the output RAR filename with -o/--output, and optionally you can select a decoy file or use the one that will be created by default

Example:

root@kitploit:~
python3 cli.py -p "payload.exe" -o "Prueba.rar"
image

Prerequisites and important notes

  • Python: version ≥ 3.10.
  • Operating system: Windows with NTFS file system (alternate data streams — ADS — are used, which only work on NTFS).
  • Vulnerable WinRAR: The test requires a WinRAR version earlier than 7.13.
  • Permissions: WinRAR must be run with administrator privileges on the victim machine so that, when extracting the file, the payload can be written to: C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
