+Subject: [PATCH] Merge pull request #3071 from stoeckmann/rar5_doublefree
+
+rar5: Avoid dangling pointers in init_unpack
+(cherry picked from commit 42453cf16255800726b4efedab25138639ceef20)
+
+Conflicts Resolved:
+
+libarchive/archive_read_support_format_rar5.c (1 conflict):
+- The stable branch's init_unpack() already unconditionally NULLs
+  rar->cstate.window_buf and rar->cstate.filtered_buf right after free()
+  (the core CVE fix), but still retained the redundant else-branch that
+  re-NULLed them when window_size <= 0. Removed that dead else-branch to
+  match the upstream fix, and omitted upstream's added
+  `if(...== NULL) return ARCHIVE_FATAL;` calloc failure checks, since
+  init_unpack() is void-returning in this stable version and predates
+  that hardening.

+Changes from upstream commit f774f03b40cb:

+Upstream-Status: Backport [https://github.com/libarchive/libarchive/commit/f774f03b40cb109348e5c6d52b59c864e3cfa8e8]
