| Summary | 0000668: file misidentifies RAR version 7 archives as version 5 | ||||
| Description | The file utility (version 5.45) incorrectly identifies RAR version 7 files as version 5. While the format name may still be "RAR 5", version 7 introduces format changes (e.g., large dictionary support) that should be reflected in the identification | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | $ rar a -md8G -r v7test.rar * $ file v7test.rar v7test.rar: RAR archive data, v5 v7test.rar: RAR archive data, v7 | ||||
| Additional Information | IF (compression_information & 0x003f > 0) THEN RETURN v7 ELSE IF (compression_information & 0x7c00 > 15) THEN RETURN v7 The file utility already supports varint, so it should be possible to implement this logic in Magdir/archive. | ||||
