Does the most recent version on the 7-Zip website, 18.00 beta, contain the patch? It's two weeks old.

7-Zip doesn't appear to contain an auto-updater or an "update me" button.

I find it a little bit concerning that the release note of V18.00 beta does not mention any fix for a security issues. I guess it's included in the "bug fixes"...

Yes, 18.00 beta is the patched version. The current release (non-beta) version is not patched yet. Moreover, the POSIX port of p7zip is not patched yet at all.
