3.3 LOW

Local vector since extraction occurs on-disk; no privileges needed; user must actively extract the archive (UI:R); impact is integrity-only as the MotW zone data and file content stream are overwritten.

DescriptionCVE.org

7-Zip for Windows through 26.02 fails to preserve the Mark-of-the-Web when extracting a crafted RAR5 archive, because its guard that suppresses an archive-supplied Zone.Identifier stream matches the exact name 'Zone.Identifier' while a RAR5 STM record named ':Zone.Identifier:$DATA' is not matched and NTFS canonicalizes it to the same stream, overwriting the propagated Internet-zone marker with ZoneId=0. A second STM record named '::$DATA' overwrites the extracted file's default data stream, letting an attacker defeat SmartScreen/MotW warnings and spoof file content.

AnalysisAI

Mark-of-the-Web protection is bypassed in 7-Zip for Windows 26.02 and earlier when extracting crafted RAR5 archives, allowing an attacker to strip the Internet-zone marker (ZoneId=0) and spoof the extracted file's data stream content - directly defeating SmartScreen and Windows attachment warnings. The bypass exploits a gap between 7-Zip's exact-string guard ('Zone.Identifier') and the NTFS-canonical equivalent (':Zone.Identifier:$DATA') that a RAR5 STM record can supply; a second STM record ('::$DATA') additionally overwrites the default file data stream for content spoofing. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The victim system must run 7-Zip for Windows version 26.02 or earlier - no other extractor triggers this flaw. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The official CVSS 4.0 score of 4.8 (Medium, AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:P/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N) mechanically captures the narrow technical impact but substantially underrepresents real-world risk. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker crafts a RAR5 archive embedding a malicious executable payload, with a STM record named ':Zone.Identifier:$DATA' (to strip the Internet-zone mark) and a STM record named '::$DATA' (to substitute spoofed file content that appears benign, e.g., a decoy document). The archive is delivered as an email attachment or hosted for drive-by download; the victim downloads it, which causes Windows to apply ZoneId=3 to the archive. …
Remediation No vendor-released patched version has been confirmed in available data at the time of analysis - the 7-Zip source repository (https://github.com/ip7z/7zip) is referenced but no tagged release addressing this issue is identified. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
