Description

This module exploits a command injection vulnerability in PeaZip. All
versions prior to 2.6.2 are suspected vulnerable. Testing was conducted with
version 2.6.1 on Windows.

In order for the command to be executed, an attacker must convince someone to
open a specially crafted zip file with PeaZip, and access the specially file via
double-clicking it. By doing so, an attacker can execute arbitrary commands
as the victim user.
