DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been reported in XacRett, which can be exploited
by malicious people to compromise a user's system.

The vulnerability is caused due to the application loading

a user into e.g. opening a compressed file located on a remote WebDAV
or SMB share.

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.

be affected.
