Published Jul 8, 2026 CWE-409 EPSS 0.32% (25th pctl)

Overview

CVE-2026-55195 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on July 8, 2026.

Technical Description

py7zr is a Python-based library and utility to support 7zip archive compression, decompression, encryption and decryption. Prior to 1.1.3, py7zr's Worker.decompress() extracted archive entries without tracking total decompressed size, allowing a crafted .7z file such as a 15.6 KB archive that expands to 100 MB to exhaust disk or memory before extraction completes. This issue is fixed in version 1.1.3.
