7-Zip is a file archiver with a high compression ratio. 7-Zip supports extracting from Compound Documents. Prior to version 25.0.0, a null pointer dereference in the Compound handler may lead to denial of service. Version 25.0.0 contains a fix cor the issue.
A NULL pointer dereference occurs when the application dereferences a pointer that it expects to be valid, but is NULL, typically causing a crash or exit.
