__PROBLEM__

We are given a zip file that contains memory dump and we need to find out the full path to the virus.

__SOLUTION__

This is quite confusing but __@kroz__ figure out the correct way to do it.

The rar file is infact not a rar file but a vulnerability listed by Checkpoint recently in which .ace file can masquerade as .rar.

So the first step is to rename the file `music.ace`, then `unace` software on Linux, the default doesn't work. So download [this](http://webdiis.unizar.es/pub/unix/archive/linunace25.tgz)

Then just run the unace on the music.ace file:

```
./unace e music.ace

As we can see it extracts music and a suspicious firefox.exe which is a dropped payload.

And the flag is `C:\\Users\\Public\\Data\\firefox.exe` (md5sum of it )

FLAG - `Securinets{9c2623856856ce8aa830a5feb0e4910d}`
