Hello all, cabextract 1.8 has been released. It greatly improves its ability to extract damaged files with the "-f" option, and the cabinfo command has been rewritten. It also fixes this bug: * if a CAB file has a Quantum-compressed datablock with exactly 38912 compressed bytes, cabextract will write exactly one byte beyond its input buffer. cabextract can be downloaded from https://www.cabextract.org.uk/ SHA256 sums: 2d9b5ba24239ba6eac02bdee6f2fa208bb4d0a14c84ed81792fc35c213140f38 cabextract-1.8-1.i386.rpm 54138e652fa0fa39e021d66b6315994f906cda965ddb786117f28276f135664e cabextract-1.8-1.src.rpm 082b8ec149babc9ae10b5d6568eb764c67e75c3cfc379b1211b88b980febebd7 cabextract-1.8.tar.gz libmspack 0.8alpha has also been released. It adds the new parameter MSCABD_PARAM_SALVAGE which permits salvaging badly damaged files rather than rejecting them outright. It fixes several bugs: * the above 38912-byte Quantum CAB block bug * libmspack now also rejects blank CHM filenames that are blank because they have embedded null bytes, not just because they are zero-length * chmextract now protects you from absolute/relative pathnames in CHM files libmspack can be downloaded from https://www.cabextract.org.uk/libmspack/ SHA256 sum: 0533792e9561375a5fce1bc96bbc65ec778af486e0daa3803b226da9244addaf libmspack-0.8alpha.tar.gz If you wish to patch an older version, please look at commits 8759da8, 7cadd48
and 40ef1b4 in the git
