It does not occur in xreader 3.2.3, Mint 20.3

or with RAR archive data, v4, os: Win32, tested only on Mint 22.1.

If you need the CBR file, please indicate so that I can send it via private message or leave a link to download it. It is 12 MiB.

Steps to reproduce

Whenever you try to open that type of cbr.

Expected behavior

You should be able to open it as you did in previous versions.

Research direction

The payload names no source file, test, or entry point. First obtain the affected CBR file and reproduce the “Prefix found” failure on xreader 4.2.6, comparing RAR v2 and v4 behavior; done means the affected RAR v2 CBR files open as they did in earlier versions and the regression is covered by a test.
