now that you mention it, we also have local patches for 7z.

I've sent two patches for this earlier to the mainlinglist in 2016.
Subject line was

"[2.11.0rc1 PATCH] do_7zip: Handle completely encrypted archives"

and

"[2.11.0 PATCH] do_7zip: Treat .zip archives with broken headers as UNDECIPHERABLE"


I'm unsure if they ever made it into the release. Theoretically
they should have been in 2.11.1, but I wouldn't count on it.


Once the new development process is getting steam, I'll make sure
to upstream our local improvements :)

Cheers,
Thomas
