A vulnerability has been identified in cbrPager, which could be exploited by attackers to compromise a vulnerable system. This issue is caused due to the application not properly sanitizing file names of image archives before calling external decompression utilities (unrar and unzip) using a "system()" call, which could be exploited by attackers to execute arbitrary shell commands via a ZIP or RAR archive containing a specially crafted filename.
