Doc Text:
A flaw was found in 7-Zip, a file archiver. This vulnerability, affecting 32-bit builds, involves a heap memory disclosure caused by an integer overflow in the SquashFS ReadBlock function. An attacker can exploit this by providing a specially crafted archive, which, when processed, allows the application to read sensitive heap memory into the extracted file. This can lead to the disclosure of confidential information.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-06-05 15:01:18 UTC
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.
