  2. Petite info du petit matin : 7-zip 26.01 vient de sortir !

    Pensez à mettre à jour, surtout sur #Linux : il y a des améliorations comme la prise en charge des “hugepages” (pages mémoires > 2 Mio).

  4. 7-Zip 26.01 - Linux huge pages provide a solid 2.5–4.5% compression speedup on modern and cache-limited CPUs by reducing TLB overhead, but offer zero benefit for decompression or ancient hardware. #memorymanagement #x86 #hugepages #largepages #7zip #linux #compression #datacompression #benchmark #performance

  5. Analyzing a Malicious Compiled HTML Help File Delivering Agent Tesla

    This analysis examines an attack chain utilizing malicious compiled HTML help (.chm) files for initial payload delivery. The attack begins with a 7zip compressed file containing a weaponized CHM file that displays a decoy window while executing obfuscated JavaScript code. This JavaScript launches PowerShell commands that verify internet connectivity by pinging Google, then downloads additional PowerShell code disguised as a JPEG file. The second stage decompresses and loads multiple byte arrays in memory, including a loader DLL and compressed Agent Tesla payload. The final Agent Tesla sample executes through process injection into RegAsm.exe and uses FTP protocol to exfiltrate stolen data including keystrokes, screenshots, and camera recordings to attacker-controlled infrastructure at ftp.videoalliance[.]ru.

    Attenzione per chi usa 7-Zip!
    Sfruttando la tecnica dei falsi tutorial e degli errori di battitura in fase di ricerca, un sito malevolo (del tutto identico all'originale), sta diffondendo un pericoloso trojan.

    Si ripete uno schema già visto in precedenza che approfitta di fretta e disattenzione in fase di installazione/update del #software .

  9. #Peazip sigue mejorando. Es un señor programón para trabajar con archivos comprimidos y cifrados. Si seguís usando #WinRAR notaréis mucha diferencia. Si ya veníais de usar #7zip quizá no notéis inmediatamente muchas funciones adicionales (que las hay) pero sí una mayor facilidad de uso e interfaz más agradable.

  11. I see this is doing the rounds

    cybernews.com/cybercrime/winra

    To be clear this is a security flaw that WinRAR patched in July last year.

    Why is it a problem now? Because WinRAR, like 7-Zip does not provide autoupdate. 😢

    I actually made a bot to start tracking these releases @archivetoolstracker at the start of the year (it has yet to post because neither have updated yet in 2026).

    If you use either of these follow it or its RSS feed so that you know when to update.

  12. RE: infosec.exchange/@burritosec/1

    #Fediverse has decided Mark-of-the-web is NOT a security feature.

    So can we now please drop any shitty CVE that claims not honoring it would be?
    Like back then when #7Zip got shit for it...

    #infosec

  13. I just realized that #notebookcheck has #7zip #benchmarks for my machine.

    What can I say? #Windows is at 69K and my #Gentoo :linux: version is at 80K. 💪

    Seems like good old -O2 does something after all!

  14. 📢 PSA: Still using p7zip? It's time to move to the official 7‑Zip packages.

    p7zip hasn't been maintained in years. Igor Pavlov now provides official *nix builds based on the current 7‑Zip codebase, with active development and real security updates.

    For the latest features and proper security fixes, make sure you're using 7‑Zip, not p7zip.

    ✨ Archive Tools Tracker
    An automated Mastodon account for tracking 7-Zip and #Rar updates.

  16. I made a small thing. Just a little automated masto account @archivetoolstracker to track updates to 7-Zip and RAR (WinRAR).

    Why!? 🤔 These types of archiving tools are very handy but have been known to have security issues (both had exploits last year). Plus they don't always provide automatic update mechanisms on most platforms. 😉

    It should be a very low volume of posts (maybe 5 a year? 🤷). Follow and click 🔔 for an actual notification. Or just follow via RSS. 😉

  17. Sometimes it is handy to use archive formats that do not confuse our windows friends. Or perhaps you want a quick listing, or to update files without reading and writing the entire thing (i.e. non-solid archives).

    Zip or 7z and friends can be handy. The problem is that with their Windows hertitage they do not always (reliably) retain certain UNIX metadata. Here is are some very simple workarounds via the find command.

  18. enz / unz

    UPDATE: added support for zip-compatible symlinks. enz works exactly like zip by default storing linked files, using the -y switch to store links only.

    github.com/ha1tch/unz

    enz and unz are a zip-compatible compressor and decompressor pair that beat zip -9 on source code by 5-10%. Uses smarter pre-processing before DEFLATE.

    It's often better than the alternatives for text, source code, structured text files, and markup.

    Pure Go. No dependencies beyond stdlib. Output works with standard ZIP tools where possible

    Benchmarks available.

  19. 🧩 3️⃣ Vulnerabilidad crítica en 7-Zip: hackers la están explotando ahora.

    Una falla grave en el popular programa de compresión 7-Zip (CVE-2025-11001) permite a atacantes ejecutar código de forma remota cuando un usuario descomprime un archivo ZIP malicioso.

    El problema radica en cómo 7-Zip maneja enlaces simbólicos (symlinks): un ZIP confeccionado puede hacer que el programa acceda a carpetas no deseadas y ejecute código con permisos elevados.

    La vulnerabilidad afecta a todas las versiones anteriores a la 25.00 (es decir, versiones usadas desde 21.02 hasta 24.09).

    Ya existe un exploit de prueba de concepto (PoC) público, lo que facilita que delincuentes lo usen en ataques reales.

    Aunque 7-Zip lanzó el parche en julio de 2025, muchos sistemas siguen sin actualizarlo: la recomendación urgente es que actualices a la versión 25.00 o superior lo antes posible.

    🔒 ¿Herramienta de compresión útil o puerta de entrada para malware?

  20. 7 Zip has a critical flaw with a public exploit and users must update the tool by hand since it has no built in updater.

  22. Сентябрьский «В тренде VM»: уязвимости в архиваторах WinRAR и 7-Zip, SAP NetWeaver и TrueConf Server

    Привет! На связи Александр Леонов, ведущий эксперт PT Expert Security Center и дежурный по самым опасным уязвимостям месяца. Мы с командой аналитиков Positive Technologies каждый месяц исследуем информацию об уязвимостях из баз и бюллетеней безопасности вендоров, социальных сетей, блогов, телеграм-каналов, баз эксплойтов, публичных репозиториев кода и выявляем во всем этом многообразии сведений трендовые уязвимости. Это те уязвимости, которые либо уже эксплуатируются вживую, либо будут эксплуатироваться в ближайшее время. С прошлого дайджеста мы добавили 8 трендовых уязвимостей.

    Хабр, привет! И вновь на связи я Александр Леонов, ведущий эксперт лаборатории PT Expert Security Center и дежурный по самым опасным уязвимостям месяца. Мы с командой аналитиков Positive Technologies каждый месяц исследуем информацию об уязвимостях из баз и бюллетеней безопасности вендоров, социальных сетей, блогов, телеграм-каналов, баз эксплойтов, публичных репозиториев кода и выявляем во всем этом многообразии сведений трендовые уязвимости. Это те уязвимости, которые либо уже эксплуатируются вживую, либо будут эксплуатироваться в ближайшее время. В новый дайджест мы отнесли к трендовым восемь уязвимостей.

  24. I listed files inside a pretty big 7z file, and found some 200 k with a spesific path.

    Now I am extracting those files and the #7zip counter is running above 300 k 🤔

  25. #AMD 128-core #Zen5-based #EPYC9755 'Turin' tested: 2X faster than 128-core predecessor compared to the #Zen4c #EPYC 9654 'Bergamo' in #7Zip
    Considering microarchitectural improvements of Zen 5 over Zen 4, higher clocks, and a larger cache, the EPYC 9755 can indeed be two times faster than the EPYC 9654 in many workloads, especially because being Zen 5-based, it is aimed at workloads sensitive to single-thread performance, unlike the Zen 4c-based CPU.
