Charlie StrossHey, @beyondmachines1 why are you illustrating your article about a 7-zip vulnerability with a photo of a computer that was discontinued 12 years before 7-zip first shipped AND CAN'T RUN IT because it's an 8-bit machine?
Did ChatGPT write that clickbait for you? Or do you just enjoy looking clueless in front of the whole world?

7-Zip vulnerability enables remote code execution through malicious ZIP files A critical directory traversal vulnerability (CVE-2025-11001) in 7-Zip allows remote code execution on Windows systems when users open malicious ZIP files, with a public proof-of-concept exploit available since October 2025. Although patched in version 25.00 (July 2025), the lack of automatic updates means many systems remain vulnerable and require immediate manual upgrade to version 25.01. **Update your 7-Zip software on Windows to version 25.01 or later ASAP. There's an vulnerability that is exploitable just by opening a malicious ZIP file. And there's a public exploit PoC, so criminals can just copy it in their attacks. Don't ignore this one** #cybersecurity #infosec #advisory #vulnerability https://beyondmachines.net/event_details/7-zip-vulnerability-enables-remote-code-execution-through-malicious-zip-files-k-o-8-v-x/gD2P6Ple2L
