    Patches for two high-severity ZIP parsing flaws have quietly been available since July.

    If you updated at some point since July 5th you already have the update.

      Ah thanks, I thought I remembered there being a big vulnerability earlier this year and I updated all my machines then

    One of the big issues with 7-Zip is that it only really updates manually. There is literally no update functionality baked in, at least in the version I’ve been running.

      Wonderful

      Just run apt update && apt upgrade redownload from the website and rerun the installer.

        I’m happy to do that, but without any update notification a new update will likely go unnoticed for some time.
