How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:13 rar to version 2:6.20~b1-0.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream rar package and not the rar package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:13 relevant fixed versions and status.

RARLAB UnRAR before 6.12 on Linux and UNIX allows directory traversal to write to files during an extract (aka unpack) operation, as demonstrated by creating a ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file. NOTE: WinRAR and Android RAR are unaffected.
