The password-based key derivation function is now based on (PBKDF2) using HMAC-SHA256; this is the core of the WinRAR security mechanism. A special password verification value detects wrong passwords without unpacking the entire file.
Abstract—In various versions of WINRAR, the file security is mainly protected by user authentication and files encryption. Password based key derivation ...
