Description Dave B 2025-10-21 02:50:52 UTC 
Description of problem:

For a couple of years, now, p7zip on epel8 has been at 16.02 which is subject to:
CVE-2023-1576

This needs to be patched asap.

Because p7zip doesn't maintain this old vesion, updating to the latest (v25) would be the best option since < 25.00 is also subject to, with PoC available, 
CVE-2025-11001 and CVE-2025-11002 .
