_I would like to check if the password that..._ Okay? What's your question? Is your code not working in some way? – B001ᛦ Nov 15 '17 at 13:19

1@B001 Nothing cannot be working. Or it can. What a paradox. – Nov 15 '17 at 13:21

Not with javascript, but with UNIX shell:
7z t -p"$PASS" archive.7z > /dev/null 2>&1 && echo correct || echo wrong
Assumes password is in PASS variable, you can substitute it directly of course.
Of course, instead of relying on echo'ed values you can just read the ret code of 7z. Zero for correct, nonzero for wrong.
