Subject: Request for encrypted zip files.
I would like to request people to send me some encrypted zip file examples,
using the 'old' PKWARE encryption method. I need people to zip up 3 or 4
small files, use the same password for all. Also, zip the same files
without the password, using the same encryption package.
Then, provide me with the 2 zip's, the password used, what OS, what zip
program (and version).
I do not need pkware zip 2.08g or 2.50.
Mostly, I am looking for these zippers:
InfoZip, MAC (older versions)
ZipIt mac, first version, and v.1.3.5 and newer
Different Info-Zip versions.
Different versions (especially older) of winzip, or freezip.
I need this, to try to find out which packages use 1 and which packages use
2 byte checksums within the encryption checksum code. The 2 byte checksums
allow john to have to decrypt/decompress a lot less frequently. Testing the
checksums is much faster, and the more passwords that can be eliminated with
just a checksum check, the faster john will process. Now, the 'safe' way to
proceed, is to always decrypt/decompress check if a single byte checksum it
happens, but if we know that a specific package can be detected, and it
produces 2 byte checksums, then we would want to proceed using both bytes.
At this time, it appears InfoZip does this (2 byte). I have some checks in
to detect infozip, but I do not know if all versions on all OS's behave the
same way. Thus the request for samples.
My email is jfoug at cox^net Replace the ^ with a . and the at with
@ DO NOT send anything sensitive in nature. A simple set of dummy text
files with junk data is just fine, along with a small binary file.
I am posting to john-dev at this time. I may make the same post on
john-users if there are not enough results from this query.
Jim.
