CVE-2025-0411

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions 7-Zip versions prior to 24.09

Description This vulnerability allows remote attackers to bypass the Mark-of-the-Web protection mechanism on affected installations of 7-Zip. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability, as the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within the handling of archived files. When extracting files from a crafted archive that bears the Mark-of-the-Web, 7-Zip does not propagate the Mark-of-the-Web to the extracted files. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code in the context of the current user. The vulnerability has been exploited in real-world attacks, targeting Ukrainian organizations with SmokeLoader malware via spear-phishing and homoglyph attacks.
