Stack-based buffer overflow in the ARJ plugin (arj.dll) 3.9.2.0 for 7-Zip 3.13, 4.23, and 4.26 BETA, as used in products including Turbo Searcher, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a large ARJ block.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old archive-parsing vulnerability in the ARJ plugin used by specific 7-Zip versions and products such as Turbo Searcher. A malicious ARJ archive with an oversized block could crash the parser or run attacker-controlled code when processed. Exposure is most likely where legacy 7-Zip builds or applications bundling the vulnerable ARJ plugin remain installed, especially tools that automatically index, preview, or extract ARJ archives. Treat this as a legacy technology risk with high impact if the component still exists. Prioritize confirmation and removal or upgrade on systems that process external archives. Mitigation focus: Inventory systems for 7-Zip 3.13, 4.23, 4.26 BETA, and arj.dll 3.9.2.0.; Check current vendor or product guidance for supported upgrade or removal instructions.; Remove unsupported legacy archive tools where they are no longer required..
