CVE-2026-48092
MediumCVSS 4.3Summary
7-Zip is a file archiver with a high compression ratio. Versions 9.34 through 26.00 contain a heap memory disclosure due to an integer overflow in the SquashFS ReadBlock function on 32-bit builds.
Risk Assessment
An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to read heap memory, potentially leading to the disclosure of sensitive data. The risk is limited to 32-bit builds of 7-Zip.
Recommendation
It is recommended to upgrade to version 26.01 or later to mitigate this vulnerability.
Original NVD description (English source)
7-Zip is a file archiver with a high compression ratio. Versions 9.34 through 26.00 contain a heap memory disclosure via SquashFS fragment offset integer overflow on 32-bit builds. 32-bit integer overflow in the SquashFS ReadBlock function allows an attacker-controlled node.Offset value to bypass the fragment bounds check, causing memcpy to read heap memory preceding the cache buffer into the extracted file. The vulnerability is exploitable only on 32-bit builds of 7-Zip where size_t is 32 bits, allowing the addition offsetInBlock + blockSize to wrap modulo 2³². On 64-bit builds the addition is promoted to 64 bits and the check correctly rejects the input. Version 26.01 patches the issue.
