CVE-2025-0411: 7-Zip Mark-of-the-Web Bypass Vulnerability

Noroxi assessment

Priority: This week (action score 72/100)

  • CISA has confirmed exploitation in the wild (Feb 6, 2025). Remediation deadline for US federal agencies: Feb 27, 2025.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 47.5% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 98.8% of all records.
  • This probability fell by 20 points in the last 7 days.
  • Someone with local access to the system can trigger it. No account or password is required. A user must open a link or visit a page. Special conditions such as timing or configuration are required.
  • According to the record, no fixed version is available yet.

Don’t wait for the next maintenance window. Until a fix is released, restrict access to the affected component and follow the vendor's advisory.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · CISA KEV · FIRST EPSS

7-Zip Mark-of-the-Web Bypass Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to bypass the Mark-of-the-Web protection mechanism on affected installations of 7-Zip. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within the handling of archived files. When extracting files from a crafted archive that bears the Mark-of-the-Web, 7-Zip does not propagate the Mark-of-the-Web to the extracted files. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code in the context of the current user. Was ZDI-CAN-25456.
