WinRAR 3.60 Beta 8 - Improved and Secure Compression

After a short absence, my postings continue with another WinRAR Beta, this time version 3.60 Beta 7, which has been posted today on the Rarlab download site. Again, only the Windows GUI and command line versions have been updated. The DOS, Mac OS X, Linux, FreeBSD ports are still at Beta 6.

It seems that the developers of WinRAR are doing some kind of code auditing these days, since, like Beta 7, this release addresses a security issue - it fixes a stack overflow vulnerability in the SFX module.

See below for the full changelog information.
