    The CVE-2025-0411 vulnerability in 7-Zip allows attackers to open and execute files inside archives without preserving the Mark-of-the-Web (MOTW) flag, potentially bypassing security restrictions. Since 7-Zip does not enforce MOTW, files extracted from an archive may execute without SmartScreen warnings, increasing the risk of exploitation.
