There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

  - 7-Zip is a file archiver with a high compression ratio. Versions 9.21 through 26.00 contain an off-by-one
    out-of-bounds read vulnerability in the ParseDepedencyExpression function of the UEFI firmware image
    parser(CPP/7zip/Archive/UefiHandler.cpp). The function validates an attacker-controlled opcode byte using
    > instead of >= against the element count of the 10-entry kExpressionCommands static array, allowing an
    opcode value of 10 to read one pointer slot (8 bytes on x64) past the end of the array in .rodata. The
    out-of-bounds value is then dereferenced as a const char * and passed through strlen and memcpy into the
    archive's Characts property, which may cause either a denial of service (access violation when the
    adjacent bytes do not form a valid readable pointer) or a minor information disclosure of an adjacent
    .rdata string literal into archive metadata. The vulnerability is reached automatically during
    IInArchive::Open() via the call path OpenFv/OpenCapsule → ParseVolume → ParseSections when processing a
    SECTION_DXE_DEPEX (0x13) or SECTION_PEI_DEPEX (0x1B) section whose first body byte is 0x0A, and the UEFI
    handler is enabled by default in stock 7z.dll with signature-based detection for both UEFIc and UEFIf
    formats. The outcome (crash vs. silent leak) is deterministic per build but linker-layout dependent, with
    no write primitive and no disclosure of heap data, secrets, or ASLR base addresses. Version 26.01 fixes
    the issue. (CVE-2026-48111)

The remote Fedora 43 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the FEDORA-2026-f36864b408 advisory.

    - Fixes CVE-2026-48092: Information disclosure in 32-bit builds
    - Fixes CVE-2026-48095: Arbitrary code execution in NTFS handler
    - Fixes CVE-2026-48101: Information disclosure in UEFI capsule parser
    - Fixes CVE-2026-48102: Information disclosure and DOS via crafted UDF       image
    - Fixes CVE-2026-48103: Off-by-one buffer over-read in WIM archive       handler
    - Fixes CVE-2026-48104: Uninitialized heap read in SquashFS archive       handler
    - Fixes CVE-2026-48111: Off-by-one OOB read in UEFI firmware image       parser
    - Fixes CVE-2026-48112: Heap-based buffer over-read in Ar handler BSD       SYMDEF parser

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The version of 7-Zip installed on the remote Windows host is >= 9.21 and prior to 26.01. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - An uninitialized heap memory disclosure exists in 7-Zip's UEFI Capsule handler, which can lead to     information disclosure or a crash when processing a crafted UEFI Capsule file. (CVE-2026-48101)

  - An out-of-bounds read exists in 7-Zip's UEFI DEPEX handler, which can lead to a crash when processing a     crafted UEFI file. (CVE-2026-48111)

  - A path traversal vulnerability exists in 7-Zip's extraction mode that can lead to arbitrary file write when     extracting a crafted archive. (GHSL-2026-115)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The remote SUSE Linux SLED15 / SLED_SAP15 / SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2026:2696-1 advisory.

    This update for 7zip fixes the following issues

    Update to 26.01:

    - CVE-2026-48092: Information disclosure in 32-bit builds due to heap memory disclosure (bsc#1267858).
    - CVE-2026-48095: Heap buffer overflow via NTFS compressed stream buffer under-allocation (bsc#1267421).
    - CVE-2026-48101: Information Disclosure via uninitialized memory in UEFI capsule parser (bsc#1267859).
    - CVE-2026-48102: Information disclosure and denial of service via crafted UDF image (bsc#1267860).
    - CVE-2026-48103: off-by-one heap out-of-bounds read (bsc#1267861).
    - CVE-2026-48104: Uninitialized heap read in SquashFS archive handler (bsc#1267862).
    - CVE-2026-48111: off-by-one out-of-bounds read in ParseDepedencyExpression function (bsc#1267863).
    - CVE-2026-48112: heap out-of-bounds read in BSD SYMDEF parser (bsc#1267864).

    Changes:

     * linux version of 7-Zip can use huge pages (2 MB pages). It can      increase compression speed for 10% for 7z/xz/LZMA/LZMA2 compression.
     * new -spo[d|c|r] switch specifies the path generation mode for      the output directory for archive extraction. The output directory      path is generated from the path specified in the -o{dir_path}      switch and the name of the archive being unpacked.
     -spod : for Linux/Posix/macOS: -o{dir_path} specifies the direct      path to the output directory. The asterisk (*) character      in {dir_path} will not be replaced by the archive name.
     -spoc : 7-Zip will concatenate the path specified in -o{dir_path}      with the archive name to form the final path to the output      directory.
     -spor : 7-Zip will replace asterisk (*) character in the path      specified in the -o{dir_path} with the archive name.
     This is the default option.
     * improved code for ZIP, CPIO, RAR, UFD, QCOW, Compound.
     * 7-Zip File Manager: improved sorting order of the file list.
     It uses file name as secondary sorting key.:
     * 7-Zip File Manager: improved Benchmark to support systems with more than      64 CPU threads.
     * bug fixed: 7-Zip could not correctly extract TAR archives containing sparse      files

    Multiple memory corruption vulnerabilities were discovered in p7zip, a     now unmaintained fork of 7-Zip, which itself is a file archiver     handling multiple formats.

    To address these security vulnerabilities, whose fixes are     unfortunately not isolated, this update again replaces p7zip with a     recent 7-Zip (now v26.01), slightly modified to make it reasonably     compatible with p7zip.
