General Format of a .ZIP file --------------------------------- - - Files stored in arbitrary order. Large .ZIP files can span multiple - volumes or be split into user-defined segment sizes. All values - are stored in little-endian byte order unless otherwise specified. - - Overall .ZIP file format: - - [local file header 1] - [file data 1] - [data descriptor 1] - . - . - . - [local file header n] - [file data n] - [data descriptor n] - [archive decryption header] - [archive extra data record] - [central directory] - [zip64 end of central directory record] - [zip64 end of central directory locator] - [end of central directory record] - - - A. Local file header: - - local file header signature 4 bytes (0x04034b50) - version needed to extract 2 bytes - general purpose bit flag 2 bytes - compression method 2 bytes - last mod file time 2 bytes - last mod file date 2 bytes - crc-32 4 bytes - compressed size 4 bytes - uncompressed size 4 bytes - file name length 2 bytes - extra field length 2 bytes - - file name (variable size) - extra field (variable size) - - B. File data - - Immediately following the local header for a file - is the compressed or stored data for the file. - The series of [local file header][file data][data - descriptor] repeats for each file in the .ZIP archive. - - C. Data descriptor: - - crc-32 4 bytes - compressed size 4 bytes - uncompressed size 4 bytes - - This descriptor exists only if bit 3 of the general - purpose bit flag is set (see below). It is byte aligned - and immediately follows the last byte of compressed data. - This descriptor is used only when it was not possible to - seek in the output .ZIP file, e.g., when the output .ZIP file - was standard output or a non-seekable device. For ZIP64(tm) format - archives, the compressed and uncompressed sizes are 8 bytes each. - - When compressing files, compressed and uncompressed sizes - should be stored in ZIP64 format (as 8 byte values) when a - files size exceeds 0xFFFFFFFF. However ZIP64 format may be - used regardless of the size of a file. When extracting, if - the zip64 extended information extra field is present for - the file the compressed and uncompressed sizes will be 8 - byte values. - - Although not originally assigned a signature, the value - 0x08074b50 has commonly been adopted as a signature value - for the data descriptor record. Implementers should be - aware that ZIP files may be encountered with or without this - signature marking data descriptors and should account for - either case when reading ZIP files to ensure compatibility. - When writing ZIP files, it is recommended to include the - signature value marking the data descriptor record. When - the signature is used, the fields currently defined for - the data descriptor record will immediately follow the - signature. - - An extensible data descriptor will be released in a future - version of this APPNOTE. This new record is intended to - resolve conflicts with the use of this record going forward, - and to provide better support for streamed file processing. - - When the Central Directory Encryption method is used, the data - descriptor record is not required, but may be used. If present, - and bit 3 of the general purpose bit field is set to indicate - its presence, the values in fields of the data descriptor - record should be set to binary zeros. - - D. Archive decryption header: - - The Archive Decryption Header is introduced in version 6.2 - of the ZIP format specification. This record exists in support - of the Central Directory Encryption Feature implemented as part of - the Strong Encryption Specification as described in this document. - When the Central Directory Structure is encrypted, this decryption - header will precede the encrypted data segment. The encrypted - data segment will consist of the Archive extra data record (if - present) and the encrypted Central Directory Structure data. - The format of this data record is identical to the Decryption - header record preceding compressed file data. If the central - directory structure is encrypted, the location of the start of - this data record is determined using the Start of Central Directory - field in the Zip64 End of Central Directory record. Refer to the - section on the Strong Encryption Specification for information - on the fields used in the Archive Decryption Header record. - - - E. Archive extra data record: - - archive extra data signature 4 bytes (0x08064b50) - extra field length 4 bytes - extra field data (variable size) - - The Archive Extra Data Record is introduced in version 6.2 - of the ZIP format specification. This record exists in support - of the Central Directory Encryption Feature implemented as part of - the Strong Encryption Specification as described in this document. - When present, this record immediately precedes the central - directory data structure. The size of this data record will be - included in the Size of the Central Directory field in the - End of Central Directory record. If the central directory structure - is compressed, but not encrypted, the location of the start of - this data record is determined using the Start of Central Directory - field in the Zip64 End of Central Directory record. - - - F. Central directory structure: - - [file header 1] - . - . - . - [file header n] - [digital signature] - - File header: - - central file header signature 4 bytes (0x02014b50) - version made by 2 bytes - version needed to extract 2 bytes - general purpose bit flag 2 bytes - compression method 2 bytes - last mod file time 2 bytes - last mod file date 2 bytes - crc-32 4 bytes - compressed size 4 bytes - uncompressed size 4 bytes - file name length 2 bytes - extra field length 2 bytes - file comment length 2 bytes - disk number start 2 bytes - internal file attributes 2 bytes - external file attributes 4 bytes - relative offset of local header 4 bytes - - file name (variable size) - extra field (variable size) - file comment (variable size) - - Digital signature: - - header signature 4 bytes (0x05054b50) - size of data 2 bytes - signature data (variable size) - - With the introduction of the Central Directory Encryption - feature in version 6.2 of this specification, the Central - Directory Structure may be stored both compressed and encrypted. - Although not required, it is assumed when encrypting the - Central Directory Structure, that it will be compressed - for greater storage efficiency. Information on the - Central Directory Encryption feature can be found in the section - describing the Strong Encryption Specification. The Digital - Signature record will be neither compressed nor encrypted. - - G. Zip64 end of central directory record - - zip64 end of central dir - signature 4 bytes (0x06064b50) - size of zip64 end of central - directory record 8 bytes - version made by 2 bytes - version needed to extract 2 bytes - number of this disk 4 bytes - number of the disk with the - start of the central directory 4 bytes - total number of entries in the - central directory on this disk 8 bytes - total number of entries in the - central directory 8 bytes - size of the central directory 8 bytes - offset of start of central - directory with respect to - the starting disk number 8 bytes - zip64 extensible data sector (variable size) - - The value stored into the "size of zip64 end of central - directory record" should be the size of the remaining - record and should not include the leading 12 bytes. - - Size = SizeOfFixedFields + SizeOfVariableData - 12. - - The above record structure defines Version 1 of the - zip64 end of central directory record. Version 1 was - implemented in versions of this specification preceding - 6.2 in support of the ZIP64 large file feature. The - introduction of the Central Directory Encryption feature - implemented in version 6.2 as part of the Strong Encryption - Specification defines Version 2 of this record structure. - Refer to the section describing the Strong Encryption - Specification for details on the version 2 format for - this record. - - Special purpose data may reside in the zip64 extensible data - sector field following either a V1 or V2 version of this - record. To ensure identification of this special purpose data - it must include an identifying header block consisting of the - following: - - Header ID - 2 bytes - Data Size - 4 bytes - - The Header ID field indicates the type of data that is in the - data block that follows. - - Data Size identifies the number of bytes that follow for this - data block type. - - Multiple special purpose data blocks may be present, but each - must be preceded by a Header ID and Data Size field. Current - mappings of Header ID values supported in this field are as - defined in APPENDIX C. - - H. Zip64 end of central directory locator - - zip64 end of central dir locator - signature 4 bytes (0x07064b50) - number of the disk with the - start of the zip64 end of - central directory 4 bytes - relative offset of the zip64 - end of central directory record 8 bytes - total number of disks 4 bytes - - I. End of central directory record: - - end of central dir signature 4 bytes (0x06054b50) - number of this disk 2 bytes - number of the disk with the - start of the central directory 2 bytes - total number of entries in the - central directory on this disk 2 bytes - total number of entries in - the central directory 2 bytes - size of the central directory 4 bytes - offset of start of central - directory with respect to - the starting disk number 4 bytes - .ZIP file comment length 2 bytes - .ZIP file comment (variable size) - - J. Explanation of fields: - - version made by (2 bytes) - - The upper byte indicates the compatibility of the file - attribute information. If the external file attributes - are compatible with MS-DOS and can be read by PKZIP for - DOS version 2.04g then this value will be zero. If these - attributes are not compatible, then this value will - identify the host system on which the attributes are - compatible. Software can use this information to determine - the line record format for text files etc. The current - mappings are: - - 0 - MS-DOS and OS/2 (FAT / VFAT / FAT32 file systems) - 1 - Amiga 2 - OpenVMS - 3 - UNIX 4 - VM/CMS - 5 - Atari ST 6 - OS/2 H.P.F.S. - 7 - Macintosh 8 - Z-System - 9 - CP/M 10 - Windows NTFS - 11 - MVS (OS/390 - Z/OS) 12 - VSE - 13 - Acorn Risc 14 - VFAT - 15 - alternate MVS 16 - BeOS - 17 - Tandem 18 - OS/400 - 19 - OS/X (Darwin) 20 thru 255 - unused - - The lower byte indicates the ZIP specification version - (the version of this document) supported by the software - used to encode the file. The value/10 indicates the major - version number, and the value mod 10 is the minor version - number. - - version needed to extract (2 bytes) - - The minimum supported ZIP specification version needed to - extract the file, mapped as above. This value is based on - the specific format features a ZIP program must support to - be able to extract the file. If multiple features are - applied to a file, the minimum version should be set to the - feature having the highest value. New features or feature - changes affecting the published format specification will be - implemented using higher version numbers than the last - published value to avoid conflict. - - Current minimum feature versions are as defined below: - - 1.0 - Default value - 1.1 - File is a volume label - 2.0 - File is a folder (directory) - 2.0 - File is compressed using Deflate compression - 2.0 - File is encrypted using traditional PKWARE encryption - 2.1 - File is compressed using Deflate64(tm) - 2.5 - File is compressed using PKWARE DCL Implode - 2.7 - File is a patch data set - 4.5 - File uses ZIP64 format extensions - 4.6 - File is compressed using BZIP2 compression* - 5.0 - File is encrypted using DES - 5.0 - File is encrypted using 3DES - 5.0 - File is encrypted using original RC2 encryption - 5.0 - File is encrypted using RC4 encryption - 5.1 - File is encrypted using AES encryption - 5.1 - File is encrypted using corrected RC2 encryption** - 5.2 - File is encrypted using corrected RC2-64 encryption** - 6.1 - File is encrypted using non-OAEP key wrapping*** - 6.2 - Central directory encryption - 6.3 - File is compressed using LZMA - 6.3 - File is compressed using PPMd+ - 6.3 - File is encrypted using Blowfish - 6.3 - File is encrypted using Twofish - - - * Early 7.x (pre-7.2) versions of PKZIP incorrectly set the - version needed to extract for BZIP2 compression to be 50 - when it should have been 46. - - ** Refer to the section on Strong Encryption Specification - for additional information regarding RC2 corrections. - - *** Certificate encryption using non-OAEP key wrapping is the - intended mode of operation for all versions beginning with 6.1. - Support for OAEP key wrapping should only be used for - backward compatibility when sending ZIP files to be opened by - versions of PKZIP older than 6.1 (5.0 or 6.0). - - + Files compressed using PPMd should set the version - needed to extract field to 6.3, however, not all ZIP - programs enforce this and may be unable to decompress - data files compressed using PPMd if this value is set. - - When using ZIP64 extensions, the corresponding value in the - zip64 end of central directory record should also be set. - This field should be set appropriately to indicate whether - Version 1 or Version 2 format is in use. - - general purpose bit flag: (2 bytes) - - Bit 0: If set, indicates that the file is encrypted. - - (For Method 6 - Imploding) - Bit 1: If the compression method used was type 6, - Imploding, then this bit, if set, indicates - an 8K sliding dictionary was used. If clear, - then a 4K sliding dictionary was used. - Bit 2: If the compression method used was type 6, - Imploding, then this bit, if set, indicates - 3 Shannon-Fano trees were used to encode the - sliding dictionary output. If clear, then 2 - Shannon-Fano trees were used. - - (For Methods 8 and 9 - Deflating) - Bit 2 Bit 1 - 0 0 Normal (-en) compression option was used. - 0 1 Maximum (-exx/-ex) compression option was used. - 1 0 Fast (-ef) compression option was used. - 1 1 Super Fast (-es) compression option was used. - - (For Method 14 - LZMA) - Bit 1: If the compression method used was type 14, - LZMA, then this bit, if set, indicates - an end-of-stream (EOS) marker is used to - mark the end of the compressed data stream. - If clear, then an EOS marker is not present - and the compressed data size must be known - to extract. - - Note: Bits 1 and 2 are undefined if the compression - method is any other. - - Bit 3: If this bit is set, the fields crc-32, compressed - size and uncompressed size are set to zero in the - local header. The correct values are put in the - data descriptor immediately following the compressed - data. (Note: PKZIP version 2.04g for DOS only - recognizes this bit for method 8 compression, newer - versions of PKZIP recognize this bit for any - compression method.) - - Bit 4: Reserved for use with method 8, for enhanced - deflating. - - Bit 5: If this bit is set, this indicates that the file is - compressed patched data. (Note: Requires PKZIP - version 2.70 or greater) - - Bit 6: Strong encryption. If this bit is set, you should - set the version needed to extract value to at least - 50 and you must also set bit 0. If AES encryption - is used, the version needed to extract value must - be at least 51. - - Bit 7: Currently unused. - - Bit 8: Currently unused. - - Bit 9: Currently unused. - - Bit 10: Currently unused. - - Bit 11: Language encoding flag (EFS). If this bit is set, - the filename and comment fields for this file - must be encoded using UTF-8. (see APPENDIX D) - - Bit 12: Reserved by PKWARE for enhanced compression. - - Bit 13: Used when encrypting the Central Directory to indicate - selected data values in the Local Header are masked to - hide their actual values. See the section describing - the Strong Encryption Specification for details. - - Bit 14: Reserved by PKWARE. - - Bit 15: Reserved by PKWARE. - - compression method: (2 bytes) - - (see accompanying documentation for algorithm - descriptions) - - 0 - The file is stored (no compression) - 1 - The file is Shrunk - 2 - The file is Reduced with compression factor 1 - 3 - The file is Reduced with compression factor 2 - 4 - The file is Reduced with compression factor 3 - 5 - The file is Reduced with compression factor 4 - 6 - The file is Imploded - 7 - Reserved for Tokenizing compression algorithm - 8 - The file is Deflated - 9 - Enhanced Deflating using Deflate64(tm) - 10 - PKWARE Data Compression Library Imploding (old IBM TERSE) - 11 - Reserved by PKWARE - 12 - File is compressed using BZIP2 algorithm - 13 - Reserved by PKWARE - 14 - LZMA (EFS) - 15 - Reserved by PKWARE - 16 - Reserved by PKWARE - 17 - Reserved by PKWARE - 18 - File is compressed using IBM TERSE (new) - 19 - IBM LZ77 z Architecture (PFS) - 98 - PPMd version I, Rev 1 - - date and time fields: (2 bytes each) - - The date and time are encoded in standard MS-DOS format. - If input came from standard input, the date and time are - those at which compression was started for this data. - If encrypting the central directory and general purpose bit - flag 13 is set indicating masking, the value stored in the - Local Header will be zero. - - CRC-32: (4 bytes) - - The CRC-32 algorithm was generously contributed by - David Schwaderer and can be found in his excellent - book "C Programmers Guide to NetBIOS" published by - Howard W. Sams & Co. Inc. The 'magic number' for - the CRC is 0xdebb20e3. The proper CRC pre and post - conditioning is used, meaning that the CRC register - is pre-conditioned with all ones (a starting value - of 0xffffffff) and the value is post-conditioned by - taking the one's complement of the CRC residual. - If bit 3 of the general purpose flag is set, this - field is set to zero in the local header and the correct - value is put in the data descriptor and in the central - directory. When encrypting the central directory, if the - local header is not in ZIP64 format and general purpose - bit flag 13 is set indicating masking, the value stored - in the Local Header will be zero. - - compressed size: (4 bytes) - uncompressed size: (4 bytes) - - The size of the file compressed and uncompressed, - respectively. When a decryption header is present it will - be placed in front of the file data and the value of the - compressed file size will include the bytes of the decryption - header. If bit 3 of the general purpose bit flag is set, - these fields are set to zero in the local header and the - correct values are put in the data descriptor and - in the central directory. If an archive is in ZIP64 format - and the value in this field is 0xFFFFFFFF, the size will be - in the corresponding 8 byte ZIP64 extended information - extra field. When encrypting the central directory, if the - local header is not in ZIP64 format and general purpose bit - flag 13 is set indicating masking, the value stored for the - uncompressed size in the Local Header will be zero. - - file name length: (2 bytes) - extra field length: (2 bytes) - file comment length: (2 bytes) - - The length of the file name, extra field, and comment - fields respectively. The combined length of any - directory record and these three fields should not - generally exceed 65,535 bytes. If input came from standard - input, the file name length is set to zero. - - disk number start: (2 bytes) - - The number of the disk on which this file begins. If an - archive is in ZIP64 format and the value in this field is - 0xFFFF, the size will be in the corresponding 4 byte zip64 - extended information extra field. - - internal file attributes: (2 bytes) - - Bits 1 and 2 are reserved for use by PKWARE. - - The lowest bit of this field indicates, if set, that - the file is apparently an ASCII or text file. If not - set, that the file apparently contains binary data. - The remaining bits are unused in version 1.0. - - The 0x0002 bit of this field indicates, if set, that a - 4 byte variable record length control field precedes each - logical record indicating the length of the record. The - record length control field is stored in little-endian byte - order. This flag is independent of text control characters, - and if used in conjunction with text data, includes any - control characters in the total length of the record. This - value is provided for mainframe data transfer support. - - external file attributes: (4 bytes) - - The mapping of the external attributes is - host-system dependent (see 'version made by'). For - MS-DOS, the low order byte is the MS-DOS directory - attribute byte. If input came from standard input, this - field is set to zero. - - relative offset of local header: (4 bytes) - - This is the offset from the start of the first disk on - which this file appears, to where the local header should - be found. If an archive is in ZIP64 format and the value - in this field is 0xFFFFFFFF, the size will be in the - corresponding 8 byte zip64 extended information extra field. - - file name: (Variable) - - The name of the file, with optional relative path. - The path stored should not contain a drive or - device letter, or a leading slash. All slashes - should be forward slashes '/' as opposed to - backwards slashes '\' for compatibility with Amiga - and UNIX file systems etc. If input came from standard - input, there is no file name field. If encrypting - the central directory and general purpose bit flag 13 is set - indicating masking, the file name stored in the Local Header - will not be the actual file name. A masking value consisting - of a unique hexadecimal value will be stored. This value will - be sequentially incremented for each file in the archive. See - the section on the Strong Encryption Specification for details - on retrieving the encrypted file name. - - extra field: (Variable) - - This is for expansion. If additional information - needs to be stored for special needs or for specific - platforms, it should be stored here. Earlier versions - of the software can then safely skip this file, and - find the next file or header. This field will be 0 - length in version 1.0. - - In order to allow different programs and different types - of information to be stored in the 'extra' field in .ZIP - files, the following structure should be used for all - programs storing data in this field: - - header1+data1 + header2+data2 . . . - - Each header should consist of: - - Header ID - 2 bytes - Data Size - 2 bytes - - Note: all fields stored in Intel low-byte/high-byte order. - - The Header ID field indicates the type of data that is in - the following data block. - - Header ID's of 0 thru 31 are reserved for use by PKWARE. - The remaining ID's can be used by third party vendors for - proprietary usage. - - The current Header ID mappings defined by PKWARE are: - - 0x0001 Zip64 extended information extra field - 0x0007 AV Info - 0x0008 Reserved for extended language encoding data (PFS) - (see APPENDIX D) - 0x0009 OS/2 - 0x000a NTFS - 0x000c OpenVMS - 0x000d UNIX - 0x000e Reserved for file stream and fork descriptors - 0x000f Patch Descriptor - 0x0014 PKCS#7 Store for X.509 Certificates - 0x0015 X.509 Certificate ID and Signature for - individual file - 0x0016 X.509 Certificate ID for Central Directory - 0x0017 Strong Encryption Header - 0x0018 Record Management Controls - 0x0019 PKCS#7 Encryption Recipient Certificate List - 0x0065 IBM S/390 (Z390), AS/400 (I400) attributes - - uncompressed - 0x0066 Reserved for IBM S/390 (Z390), AS/400 (I400) - attributes - compressed - 0x4690 POSZIP 4690 (reserved) - - Third party mappings commonly used are: - - - 0x07c8 Macintosh - 0x2605 ZipIt Macintosh - 0x2705 ZipIt Macintosh 1.3.5+ - 0x2805 ZipIt Macintosh 1.3.5+ - 0x334d Info-ZIP Macintosh - 0x4341 Acorn/SparkFS - 0x4453 Windows NT security descriptor (binary ACL) - 0x4704 VM/CMS - 0x470f MVS - 0x4b46 FWKCS MD5 (see below) - 0x4c41 OS/2 access control list (text ACL) - 0x4d49 Info-ZIP OpenVMS - 0x4f4c Xceed original location extra field - 0x5356 AOS/VS (ACL) - 0x5455 extended timestamp - 0x554e Xceed unicode extra field - 0x5855 Info-ZIP UNIX (original, also OS/2, NT, etc) - 0x6542 BeOS/BeBox - 0x756e ASi UNIX - 0x7855 Info-ZIP UNIX (new) - 0xa220 Microsoft Open Packaging Growth Hint - 0xfd4a SMS/QDOS - - Detailed descriptions of Extra Fields defined by third - party mappings will be documented as information on - these data structures is made available to PKWARE. - PKWARE does not guarantee the accuracy of any published - third party data. - - The Data Size field indicates the size of the following - data block. Programs can use this value to skip to the - next header block, passing over any data blocks that are - not of interest. - - Note: As stated above, the size of the entire .ZIP file - header, including the file name, comment, and extra - field should not exceed 64K in size. - - In case two different programs should appropriate the same - Header ID value, it is strongly recommended that each - program place a unique signature of at least two bytes in - size (and preferably 4 bytes or bigger) at the start of - each data area. Every program should verify that its - unique signature is present, in addition to the Header ID - value being correct, before assuming that it is a block of - known type. - - -Zip64 Extended Information Extra Field (0x0001): - - The following is the layout of the zip64 extended - information "extra" block. If one of the size or - offset fields in the Local or Central directory - record is too small to hold the required data, - a Zip64 extended information record is created. - The order of the fields in the zip64 extended - information record is fixed, but the fields will - only appear if the corresponding Local or Central - directory record field is set to 0xFFFF or 0xFFFFFFFF. - - Note: all fields stored in Intel low-byte/high-byte order. - - Value Size Description - ----- ---- ----------- - (ZIP64) 0x0001 2 bytes Tag for this "extra" block type - Size 2 bytes Size of this "extra" block - Original - Size 8 bytes Original uncompressed file size - Compressed - Size 8 bytes Size of compressed data - Relative Header - Offset 8 bytes Offset of local header record - Disk Start - Number 4 bytes Number of the disk on which - this file starts - - This entry in the Local header must include BOTH original - and compressed file size fields.

Splitting and Spanning ZIP files - - Spanning is the process of segmenting a ZIP file across - multiple removable media. This support has typically only - been provided for DOS formatted floppy diskettes. - - File splitting is a newer derivative of spanning. - Splitting follows the same segmentation process as - spanning, however, it does not require writing each - segment to a unique removable medium and instead supports - placing all pieces onto local or non-removable locations - such as file systems, local drives, folders, etc... - - A key difference between spanned and split ZIP files is - that all pieces of a spanned ZIP file have the same name. - Since each piece is written to a separate volume, no name - collisions occur and each segment can reuse the original - .ZIP file name given to the archive. - - Sequence ordering for DOS spanned archives uses the DOS - volume label to determine segment numbers. Volume labels - for each segment are written using the form PKBACK#xxx, - where xxx is the segment number written as a decimal - value from 001 - nnn. - - Split ZIP files are typically written to the same location - and are subject to name collisions if the spanned name - format is used since each segment will reside on the same - drive. To avoid name collisions, split archives are named - as follows. - - Segment 1 = filename.z01 - Segment n-1 = filename.z(n-1) - Segment n = filename.zip - - The .ZIP extension is used on the last segment to support - quickly reading the central directory. The segment number - n should be a decimal value. - - Spanned ZIP files may be PKSFX Self-extracting ZIP files. - PKSFX files may also be split, however, in this case - the first segment must be named filename.exe. The first - segment of a split PKSFX archive must be large enough to - include the entire executable program. - - Capacities for split archives are as follows. - - Maximum number of segments = 4,294,967,295 - 1 - Maximum .ZIP segment size = 4,294,967,295 bytes - Minimum segment size = 64K - Maximum PKSFX segment size = 2,147,483,647 bytes - - Segment sizes may be different however by convention, all - segment sizes should be the same with the exception of the - last, which may be smaller. Local and central directory - header records must never be split across a segment boundary. - When writing a header record, if the number of bytes remaining - within a segment is less than the size of the header record, - end the current segment and write the header at the start - of the next segment. The central directory may span segment - boundaries, but no single record in the central directory - should be split across segments. - - Spanned/Split archives created using PKZIP for Windows - (V2.50 or greater), PKZIP Command Line (V2.50 or greater), - or PKZIP Explorer will include a special spanning - signature as the first 4 bytes of the first segment of - the archive. This signature (0x08074b50) will be - followed immediately by the local header signature for - the first file in the archive. - - A special spanning marker may also appear in spanned/split - archives if the spanning or splitting process starts but - only requires one segment. In this case the 0x08074b50 - signature will be replaced with the temporary spanning - marker signature of 0x30304b50. Split archives can - only be uncompressed by other versions of PKZIP that - know how to create a split archive. - - The signature value 0x08074b50 is also used by some - ZIP implementations as a marker for the Data Descriptor - record. Conflict in this alternate assignment can be - avoided by ensuring the position of the signature - within the ZIP file to determine the use for which it - is intended. - - L. General notes: - - 1) All fields unless otherwise noted are unsigned and stored - in Intel low-byte:high-byte, low-word:high-word order. - - 2) String fields are not null terminated, since the - length is given explicitly. - - 3) The entries in the central directory may not necessarily - be in the same order that files appear in the .ZIP file. - - 4) If one of the fields in the end of central directory - record is too small to hold required data, the field - should be set to -1 (0xFFFF or 0xFFFFFFFF) and the - ZIP64 format record should be created. - - 5) The end of central directory record and the - Zip64 end of central directory locator record must - reside on the same disk when splitting or spanning - an archive. - -VI. UnShrinking - Method 1 --------------------------- - -Shrinking is a Dynamic Ziv-Lempel-Welch compression algorithm -with partial clearing. The initial code size is 9 bits, and -the maximum code size is 13 bits. Shrinking differs from -conventional Dynamic Ziv-Lempel-Welch implementations in several -respects: - -1) The code size is controlled by the compressor, and is not - automatically increased when codes larger than the current - code size are created (but not necessarily used). When - the decompressor encounters the code sequence 256 - (decimal) followed by 1, it should increase the code size - read from the input stream to the next bit size. No - blocking of the codes is performed, so the next code at - the increased size should be read from the input stream - immediately after where the previous code at the smaller - bit size was read. Again, the decompressor should not - increase the code size used until the sequence 256,1 is - encountered. - -2) When the table becomes full, total clearing is not - performed. Rather, when the compressor emits the code - sequence 256,2 (decimal), the decompressor should clear - all leaf nodes from the Ziv-Lempel tree, and continue to - use the current code size. The nodes that are cleared - from the Ziv-Lempel tree are then re-used, with the lowest - code value re-used first, and the highest code value - re-used last. The compressor can emit the sequence 256,2 - at any time. - -VII. Expanding - Methods 2-5 ----------------------------- - -The Reducing algorithm is actually a combination of two -distinct algorithms. The first algorithm compresses repeated -byte sequences, and the second algorithm takes the compressed -stream from the first algorithm and applies a probabilistic -compression method. - -The probabilistic compression stores an array of 'follower -sets' S(j), for j=0 to 255, corresponding to each possible -ASCII character. Each set contains between 0 and 32 -characters, to be denoted as S(j)[0],...,S(j)[m], where m<32. -The sets are stored at the beginning of the data area for a -Reduced file, in reverse order, with S(255) first, and S(0) -last. - -The sets are encoded as { N(j), S(j)[0],...,S(j)[N(j)-1] }, -where N(j) is the size of set S(j). N(j) can be 0, in which -case the follower set for S(j) is empty. Each N(j) value is -encoded in 6 bits, followed by N(j) eight bit character values -corresponding to S(j)[0] to S(j)[N(j)-1] respectively. If -N(j) is 0, then no values for S(j) are stored, and the value -for N(j-1) immediately follows. - -Immediately after the follower sets, is the compressed data -stream. The compressed data stream can be interpreted for the -probabilistic decompression as follows: - -let Last-Character <- 0. -loop until done - if the follower set S(Last-Character) is empty then - read 8 bits from the input stream, and copy this - value to the output stream. - otherwise if the follower set S(Last-Character) is non-empty then - read 1 bit from the input stream. - if this bit is not zero then - read 8 bits from the input stream, and copy this - value to the output stream. - otherwise if this bit is zero then - read B(N(Last-Character)) bits from the input - stream, and assign this value to I. - Copy the value of S(Last-Character)[I] to the - output stream. - - assign the last value placed on the output stream to - Last-Character. -end loop - -B(N(j)) is defined as the minimal number of bits required to -encode the value N(j)-1. - -The decompressed stream from above can then be expanded to -re-create the original file as follows: - -let State <- 0. - -loop until done - read 8 bits from the input stream into C. - case State of - 0: if C is not equal to DLE (144 decimal) then - copy C to the output stream. - otherwise if C is equal to DLE then - let State <- 1. - - 1: if C is non-zero then - let V <- C. - let Len <- L(V) - let State <- F(Len). - otherwise if C is zero then - copy the value 144 (decimal) to the output stream. - let State <- 0 - - 2: let Len <- Len + C - let State <- 3. - - 3: move backwards D(V,C) bytes in the output stream - (if this position is before the start of the output - stream, then assume that all the data before the - start of the output stream is filled with zeros). - copy Len+3 bytes from this position to the output stream. - let State <- 0. - end case -end loop - -The functions F,L, and D are dependent on the 'compression -factor', 1 through 4, and are defined as follows: - -For compression factor 1: - L(X) equals the lower 7 bits of X. - F(X) equals 2 if X equals 127 otherwise F(X) equals 3. - D(X,Y) equals the (upper 1 bit of X) * 256 + Y + 1. -For compression factor 2: - L(X) equals the lower 6 bits of X. - F(X) equals 2 if X equals 63 otherwise F(X) equals 3. - D(X,Y) equals the (upper 2 bits of X) * 256 + Y + 1. -For compression factor 3: - L(X) equals the lower 5 bits of X. - F(X) equals 2 if X equals 31 otherwise F(X) equals 3. - D(X,Y) equals the (upper 3 bits of X) * 256 + Y + 1. -For compression factor 4: - L(X) equals the lower 4 bits of X. - F(X) equals 2 if X equals 15 otherwise F(X) equals 3. - D(X,Y) equals the (upper 4 bits of X) * 256 + Y + 1. - -VIII. Imploding - Method 6 --------------------------- - -The Imploding algorithm is actually a combination of two distinct -algorithms. The first algorithm compresses repeated byte -sequences using a sliding dictionary. The second algorithm is -used to compress the encoding of the sliding dictionary output, -using multiple Shannon-Fano trees. - -The Imploding algorithm can use a 4K or 8K sliding dictionary -size. The dictionary size used can be determined by bit 1 in the -general purpose flag word; a 0 bit indicates a 4K dictionary -while a 1 bit indicates an 8K dictionary. - -The Shannon-Fano trees are stored at the start of the compressed -file. The number of trees stored is defined by bit 2 in the -general purpose flag word; a 0 bit indicates two trees stored, a -1 bit indicates three trees are stored. If 3 trees are stored, -the first Shannon-Fano tree represents the encoding of the -Literal characters, the second tree represents the encoding of -the Length information, the third represents the encoding of the -Distance information. When 2 Shannon-Fano trees are stored, the -Length tree is stored first, followed by the Distance tree. - -The Literal Shannon-Fano tree, if present is used to represent -the entire ASCII character set, and contains 256 values. This -tree is used to compress any data not compressed by the sliding -dictionary algorithm. When this tree is present, the Minimum -Match Length for the sliding dictionary is 3. If this tree is -not present, the Minimum Match Length is 2. - -The Length Shannon-Fano tree is used to compress the Length part -of the (length,distance) pairs from the sliding dictionary -output. The Length tree contains 64 values, ranging from the -Minimum Match Length, to 63 plus the Minimum Match Length. - -The Distance Shannon-Fano tree is used to compress the Distance -part of the (length,distance) pairs from the sliding dictionary -output. The Distance tree contains 64 values, ranging from 0 to -63, representing the upper 6 bits of the distance value. The -distance values themselves will be between 0 and the sliding -dictionary size, either 4K or 8K. - -The Shannon-Fano trees themselves are stored in a compressed -format. The first byte of the tree data represents the number of -bytes of data representing the (compressed) Shannon-Fano tree -minus 1. The remaining bytes represent the Shannon-Fano tree -data encoded as: - - High 4 bits: Number of values at this bit length + 1. (1 - 16) - Low 4 bits: Bit Length needed to represent value + 1. (1 - 16) - -The Shannon-Fano codes can be constructed from the bit lengths -using the following algorithm: - -1) Sort the Bit Lengths in ascending order, while retaining the - order of the original lengths stored in the file. - -2) Generate the Shannon-Fano trees: - - Code <- 0 - CodeIncrement <- 0 - LastBitLength <- 0 - i <- number of Shannon-Fano codes - 1 (either 255 or 63) - - loop while i >= 0 - Code = Code + CodeIncrement - if BitLength(i) <> LastBitLength then - LastBitLength=BitLength(i) - CodeIncrement = 1 shifted left (16 - LastBitLength) - ShannonCode(i) = Code - i <- i - 1 - end loop - -3) Reverse the order of all the bits in the above ShannonCode() - vector, so that the most significant bit becomes the least - significant bit. For example, the value 0x1234 (hex) would - become 0x2C48 (hex). - -4) Restore the order of Shannon-Fano codes as originally stored - within the file. - -Example: - - This example will show the encoding of a Shannon-Fano tree - of size 8. Notice that the actual Shannon-Fano trees used - for Imploding are either 64 or 256 entries in size. - -Example: 0x02, 0x42, 0x01, 0x13 - - The first byte indicates 3 values in this table. Decoding the - bytes: - 0x42 = 5 codes of 3 bits long - 0x01 = 1 code of 2 bits long - 0x13 = 2 codes of 4 bits long - - This would generate the original bit length array of: - (3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 2, 4, 4) - - There are 8 codes in this table for the values 0 thru 7.

Deflating - Method 8 ------------------------ - -The Deflate algorithm is similar to the Implode algorithm using -a sliding dictionary of up to 32K with secondary compression -from Huffman/Shannon-Fano codes. - -The compressed data is stored in blocks with a header describing -the block and the Huffman codes used in the data block. The header -format is as follows: - - Bit 0: Last Block bit This bit is set to 1 if this is the last - compressed block in the data. - Bits 1-2: Block type - 00 (0) - Block is stored - All stored data is byte aligned. - Skip bits until next byte, then next word = block - length, followed by the ones compliment of the block - length word.

(3 bits of length) - 18: Repeat a bit length of 0 for 11 - 138 times (7 bits of length) - -The lengths of the bit length codes are sent packed 3 bits per value -(0 - 7) in the following order: - - 16, 17, 18, 0, 8, 7, 9, 6, 10, 5, 11, 4, 12, 3, 13, 2, 14, 1, 15 - -The Huffman codes should be built as described in the Implode algorithm -except codes are assigned starting at the shortest bit length, i.e. the -shortest code should be all 0's rather than all 1's. Also, codes with -a bit length of zero do not participate in the tree construction. The -codes are then used to decode the bit lengths for the literal and -distance tables. - -The bit lengths for the literal tables are sent first with the number -of entries sent described by the 5 bits sent earlier. There are up -to 286 literal characters; the first 256 represent the respective 8 -bit character, code 256 represents the End-Of-Block code, the remaining -29 codes represent copy lengths of 3 thru 258.

Information and source code for this algorithm -can be found on the internet. - -XIII. LZMA - Method 14 (EFS) ----------------------------- - -LZMA is a block-oriented, general purpose data compression algorithm -developed and maintained by Igor Pavlov. It is a derivative of LZ77 -that utilizes Markov chains and a range coder. Information and -source code for this algorithm can be found on the internet. Consult -with the author of this algorithm for information on terms or -restrictions on use. - -Support for LZMA within the ZIP format is defined as follows: - -The Compression method field within the ZIP Local and Central -Header records will be set to the value 14 to indicate data was -compressed using LZMA. - -The Version needed to extract field within the ZIP Local and -Central Header records will be set to 6.3 to indicate the -minimum ZIP format version supporting this feature. - -File data compressed using the LZMA algorithm must be placed -immediately following the Local Header for the file. If a -standard ZIP encryption header is required, it will follow -the Local Header and will precede the LZMA compressed file -data segment. The location of LZMA compressed data segment -within the ZIP format will be as shown: - - [local header file 1] - [encryption header file 1] - [LZMA compressed data segment for file 1] - [data descriptor 1] - [local header file 2] - -The encryption header and data descriptor records may -be conditionally present. The LZMA Compressed Data Segment -will consist of an LZMA Properties Header followed by the -LZMA Compressed Data as shown: - - [LZMA properties header for file 1] - [LZMA compressed data for file 1] - -The LZMA Compressed Data will be stored as provided by the -LZMA compression library. Compressed size, uncompressed -size and other file characteristics about the file being -compressed must be stored in standard ZIP storage format. - -The LZMA Properties Header will store specific data required to -decompress the LZMA compressed Data. This data is set by the -LZMA compression engine using the function WriteCoderProperties() -as documented within the LZMA SDK. - -Storage fields for the property information within the LZMA -Properties Header are as follows: - - LZMA Version Information 2 bytes - LZMA Properties Size 2 bytes - LZMA Properties Data variable, defined by "LZMA Properties Size" - -LZMA Version Information - this field identifies which version of - the LZMA SDK was used to compress a file. The first byte will - store the major version number of the LZMA SDK and the second - byte will store the minor number. - -LZMA Properties Size - this field defines the size of the remaining - property data. Typically this size should be determined by the - version of the SDK. This size field is included as a convenience - and to help avoid any ambiguity should it arise in the future due - to changes in this compression algorithm. - -LZMA Property Data - this variable sized field records the required - values for the decompressor as defined by the LZMA SDK. The - data stored in this field should be obtained using the - WriteCoderProperties() in the version of the SDK defined by - the "LZMA Version Information" field. - -The layout of the "LZMA Properties Data" field is a function of the -LZMA compression algorithm. It is possible that this layout may be -changed by the author over time. The data layout in version 4.32 -of the LZMA SDK defines a 5 byte array that uses 4 bytes to store -the dictionary size in little-endian order. This is preceded by a -single packed byte as the first element of the array that contains -the following fields: - - PosStateBits - LiteralPosStateBits - LiteralContextBits - -Refer to the LZMA documentation for a more detailed explanation of -these fields. - -Data compressed with method 14, LZMA, may include an end-of-stream -(EOS) marker ending the compressed data stream. This marker is not -required, but its use is highly recommended to facilitate processing -and implementers should include the EOS marker whenever possible. -When the EOS marker is used, general purpose bit 1 must be set. If -general purpose bit 1 is not set, the EOS marker is not present. - -XIV. PPMd - Method 98 ---------------------- - -PPMd is a data compression algorithm developed by Dmitry Shkarin -which includes a carryless rangecoder developed by Dmitry Subbotin. -This algorithm is based on predictive phrase matching on multiple -order contexts. Information and source code for this algorithm -can be found on the internet. Consult with the author of this -algorithm for information on terms or restrictions on use. - -Support for PPMd within the ZIP format currently is provided only -for version I, revision 1 of the algorithm. Storage requirements -for using this algorithm are as follows: - -Parameters needed to control the algorithm are stored in the two -bytes immediately preceding the compressed data. These bytes are -used to store the following fields: - -Model order - sets the maximum model order, default is 8, possible - values are from 2 to 16 inclusive - -Sub-allocator size - sets the size of sub-allocator in MB, default is 50, - possible values are from 1MB to 256MB inclusive - -Model restoration method - sets the method used to restart context - model at memory insufficiency, values are: - - 0 - restarts model from scratch - default - 1 - cut off model - decreases performance by as much as 2x - 2 - freeze context tree - not recommended - -An example for packing these fields into the 2 byte storage field is -illustrated below. These values are stored in Intel low-byte/high-byte -order. - -wPPMd = (Model order - 1) + - ((Sub-allocator size - 1) << 4) + - (Model restoration method << 12) - - -XV. Traditional PKWARE Encryption ---------------------------------- - -The following information discusses the decryption steps -required to support traditional PKWARE encryption. This -form of encryption is considered weak by today's standards -and its use is recommended only for situations with -low security needs or for compatibility with older .ZIP -applications. - -Decryption ----------- - -PKWARE is grateful to Mr. Roger Schlafly for his expert contribution -towards the development of PKWARE's traditional encryption. - -PKZIP encrypts the compressed data stream. Encrypted files must -be decrypted before they can be extracted. - -Each encrypted file has an extra 12 bytes stored at the start of -the data area defining the encryption header for that file. The -encryption header is originally set to random values, and then -itself encrypted, using three, 32-bit keys. The key values are -initialized using the supplied encryption password. After each byte -is encrypted, the keys are then updated using pseudo-random number -generation techniques in combination with the same CRC-32 algorithm -used in PKZIP and described elsewhere in this document. - -The following is the basic steps required to decrypt a file: - -1) Initialize the three 32-bit keys with the password. -2) Read and decrypt the 12-byte encryption header, further - initializing the encryption keys. -3) Read and decrypt the compressed data stream using the - encryption keys. - -Step 1 - Initializing the encryption keys ------------------------------------------ - -Key(0) <- 305419896 -Key(1) <- 591751049 -Key(2) <- 878082192 - -loop for i <- 0 to length(password)-1 - update_keys(password(i)) -end loop - -Where update_keys() is defined as: - -update_keys(char): - Key(0) <- crc32(key(0),char) - Key(1) <- Key(1) + (Key(0) & 000000ffH) - Key(1) <- Key(1) * 134775813 + 1 - Key(2) <- crc32(key(2),key(1) >> 24) -end update_keys - -Where crc32(old_crc,char) is a routine that given a CRC value and a -character, returns an updated CRC value after applying the CRC-32 -algorithm described elsewhere in this document. - -Step 2 - Decrypting the encryption header ------------------------------------------ - -The purpose of this step is to further initialize the encryption -keys, based on random data, to render a plaintext attack on the -data ineffective. - -Read the 12-byte encryption header into Buffer, in locations -Buffer(0) thru Buffer(11). - -loop for i <- 0 to 11 - C <- buffer(i) ^ decrypt_byte() - update_keys(C) - buffer(i) <- C -end loop - -Where decrypt_byte() is defined as: - -unsigned char decrypt_byte() - local unsigned short temp - temp <- Key(2) | 2 - decrypt_byte <- (temp * (temp ^ 1)) >> 8 -end decrypt_byte - -After the header is decrypted, the last 1 or 2 bytes in Buffer -should be the high-order word/byte of the CRC for the file being -decrypted, stored in Intel low-byte/high-byte order. Versions of -PKZIP prior to 2.0 used a 2 byte CRC check; a 1 byte CRC check is -used on versions after 2.0. This can be used to test if the password -supplied is correct or not. - -Step 3 - Decrypting the compressed data stream ----------------------------------------------- - -The compressed data stream can be decrypted as follows: - -loop until done - read a character into C - Temp <- C ^ decrypt_byte() - update_keys(temp) - output Temp -end loop - - -XVI. Strong Encryption Specification ------------------------------------- - -The Strong Encryption technology defined in this specification is -covered under a pending patent application. The use or implementation -in a product of certain technological aspects set forth in the current -APPNOTE, including those with regard to strong encryption, patching, -or extended tape operations requires a license from PKWARE. Portions -of this Strong Encryption technology are available for use at no charge. -Contact PKWARE for licensing terms and conditions. Refer to section II -of this APPNOTE (Contacting PKWARE) for information on how to -contact PKWARE. - -Version 5.x of this specification introduced support for strong -encryption algorithms. These algorithms can be used with either -a password or an X.509v3 digital certificate to encrypt each file. -This format specification supports either password or certificate -based encryption to meet the security needs of today, to enable -interoperability between users within both PKI and non-PKI -environments, and to ensure interoperability between different -computing platforms that are running a ZIP program. - -Password based encryption is the most common form of encryption -people are familiar with. However, inherent weaknesses with -passwords (e.g. susceptibility to dictionary/brute force attack) -as well as password management and support issues make certificate -based encryption a more secure and scalable option. Industry -efforts and support are defining and moving towards more advanced -security solutions built around X.509v3 digital certificates and -Public Key Infrastructures(PKI) because of the greater scalability, -administrative options, and more robust security over traditional -password based encryption. - -Most standard encryption algorithms are supported with this -specification. Reference implementations for many of these -algorithms are available from either commercial or open source -distributors. Readily available cryptographic toolkits make -implementation of the encryption features straight-forward. -This document is not intended to provide a treatise on data -encryption principles or theory. Its purpose is to document the -data structures required for implementing interoperable data -encryption within the .ZIP format. It is strongly recommended that -you have a good understanding of data encryption before reading -further. - -The algorithms introduced in Version 5.0 of this specification -include: - - RC2 40 bit, 64 bit, and 128 bit - RC4 40 bit, 64 bit, and 128 bit - DES - 3DES 112 bit and 168 bit - -Version 5.1 adds support for the following: - - AES 128 bit, 192 bit, and 256 bit - - -Version 6.1 introduces encryption data changes to support -interoperability with Smartcard and USB Token certificate storage -methods which do not support the OAEP strengthening standard. - -Version 6.2 introduces support for encrypting metadata by compressing -and encrypting the central directory data structure to reduce information -leakage. Information leakage can occur in legacy ZIP applications -through exposure of information about a file even though that file is -stored encrypted. The information exposed consists of file -characteristics stored within the records and fields defined by this -specification. This includes data such as a files name, its original -size, timestamp and CRC32 value. - -Version 6.3 introduces support for encrypting data using the Blowfish -and Twofish algorithms. These are symmetric block ciphers developed -by Bruce Schneier. Blowfish supports using a variable length key from -32 to 448 bits. Block size is 64 bits. Implementations should use 16 -rounds and the only mode supported within ZIP files is CBC. Twofish -supports key sizes 128, 192 and 256 bits. Block size is 128 bits. -Implementations should use 16 rounds and the only mode supported within -ZIP files is CBC. Information and source code for both Blowfish and -Twofish algorithms can be found on the internet. Consult with the author -of these algorithms for information on terms or restrictions on use. - -Central Directory Encryption provides greater protection against -information leakage by encrypting the Central Directory structure and -by masking key values that are replicated in the unencrypted Local -Header. ZIP compatible programs that cannot interpret an encrypted -Central Directory structure cannot rely on the data in the corresponding -Local Header for decompression information. - -Extra Field records that may contain information about a file that should -not be exposed should not be stored in the Local Header and should only -be written to the Central Directory where they can be encrypted. This -design currently does not support streaming. Information in the End of -Central Directory record, the Zip64 End of Central Directory Locator, -and the Zip64 End of Central Directory records are not encrypted. Access -to view data on files within a ZIP file with an encrypted Central Directory -requires the appropriate password or private key for decryption prior to -viewing any files, or any information about the files, in the archive. - -Older ZIP compatible programs not familiar with the Central Directory -Encryption feature will no longer be able to recognize the Central -Directory and may assume the ZIP file is corrupt. Programs that -attempt streaming access using Local Headers will see invalid -information for each file. Central Directory Encryption need not be -used for every ZIP file. Its use is recommended for greater security. -ZIP files not using Central Directory Encryption should operate as -in the past. - -This strong encryption feature specification is intended to provide for -scalable, cross-platform encryption needs ranging from simple password -encryption to authenticated public/private key encryption. - -Encryption provides data confidentiality and privacy. It is -recommended that you combine X.509 digital signing with encryption -to add authentication and non-repudiation. - - -Single Password Symmetric Encryption Method: -------------------------------------------- - -The Single Password Symmetric Encryption Method using strong -encryption algorithms operates similarly to the traditional -PKWARE encryption defined in this format. Additional data -structures are added to support the processing needs of the -strong algorithms. - -The Strong Encryption data structures are: - -1. General Purpose Bits - Bits 0 and 6 of the General Purpose bit -flag in both local and central header records. Both bits set -indicates strong encryption. Bit 13, when set indicates the Central -Directory is encrypted and that selected fields in the Local Header -are masked to hide their actual value. - - -2.

Useful Tips - -Strong Encryption is always applied to a file after compression. The -block oriented algorithms all operate in Cypher Block Chaining (CBC) -mode. The block size used for AES encryption is 16. All other block -algorithms use a block size of 8. Two ID's are defined for RC2 to -account for a discrepancy found in the implementation of the RC2 -algorithm in the cryptographic library on Windows XP SP1 and all -earlier versions of Windows. It is recommended that zero length files -not be encrypted, however programs should be prepared to extract them -if they are found within a ZIP file. - -A pseudo-code representation of the encryption process is as follows: - -Password = GetUserPassword() -MasterSessionKey = DeriveKey(SHA1(Password)) -RD = CryptographicStrengthRandomData() -For Each File - IV = CryptographicStrengthRandomData() - VData = CryptographicStrengthRandomData() - VCRC32 = CRC32(VData) - FileSessionKey = DeriveKey(SHA1(IV + RD) - ErdData = Encrypt(RD,MasterSessionKey,IV) - Encrypt(VData + VCRC32 + FileData, FileSessionKey,IV) -Done - -The function names and parameter requirements will depend on -the choice of the cryptographic toolkit selected. Almost any -toolkit supporting the reference implementations for each -algorithm can be used. The RSA BSAFE(r), OpenSSL, and Microsoft -CryptoAPI libraries are all known to work well. - - -Single Password - Central Directory Encryption: ------------------------------------------------ - -Central Directory Encryption is achieved within the .ZIP format by -encrypting the Central Directory structure. This encapsulates the metadata -most often used for processing .ZIP files. Additional metadata is stored for -redundancy in the Local Header for each file. The process of concealing -metadata by encrypting the Central Directory does not protect the data within -the Local Header. To avoid information leakage from the exposed metadata -in the Local Header, the fields containing information about a file are masked. - -Local Header: - -Masking replaces the true content of the fields for a file in the Local -Header with false information. When masked, the Local Header is not -suitable for streaming access and the options for data recovery of damaged -archives is reduced. Extra Data fields that may contain confidential -data should not be stored within the Local Header. The value set into -the Version needed to extract field should be the correct value needed to -extract the file without regard to Central Directory Encryption. The fields -within the Local Header targeted for masking when the Central Directory is -encrypted are: - - Field Name Mask Value - ------------------ --------------------------- - compression method 0 - last mod file time 0 - last mod file date 0 - crc-32 0 - compressed size 0 - uncompressed size 0 - file name (variable size) Base 16 value from the - range 1 - 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF - represented as a string whose - size will be set into the - file name length field - -The Base 16 value assigned as a masked file name is simply a sequentially -incremented value for each file starting with 1 for the first file. -Modifications to a ZIP file may cause different values to be stored for -each file. For compatibility, the file name field in the Local Header -should never be left blank. As of Version 6.2 of this specification, -the Compression Method and Compressed Size fields are not yet masked. -Fields having a value of 0xFFFF or 0xFFFFFFFF for the ZIP64 format -should not be masked. - -Encrypting the Central Directory: - -Encryption of the Central Directory does not include encryption of the -Central Directory Signature data, the Zip64 End of Central Directory -record, the Zip64 End of Central Directory Locator, or the End -of Central Directory record. The ZIP file comment data is never -encrypted. - -Before encrypting the Central Directory, it may optionally be compressed. -Compression is not required, but for storage efficiency it is assumed -this structure will be compressed before encrypting. Similarly, this -specification supports compressing the Central Directory without -requiring that it also be encrypted. Early implementations of this -feature will assume the encryption method applied to files matches the -encryption applied to the Central Directory. - -Encryption of the Central Directory is done in a manner similar to -that of file encryption. The encrypted data is preceded by a -decryption header. The decryption header is known as the Archive -Decryption Header. The fields of this record are identical to -the decryption header preceding each encrypted file. The location -of the Archive Decryption Header is determined by the value in the -Start of the Central Directory field in the Zip64 End of Central -Directory record. When the Central Directory is encrypted, the -Zip64 End of Central Directory record will always be present. - -The layout of the Zip64 End of Central Directory record for all -versions starting with 6.2 of this specification will follow the -Version 2 format. The Version 2 format is as follows: - -The leading fixed size fields within the Version 1 format for this -record remain unchanged. The record signature for both Version 1 -and Version 2 will be 0x06064b50. Immediately following the last -byte of the field known as the Offset of Start of Central -Directory With Respect to the Starting Disk Number will begin the -new fields defining Version 2 of this record. - -New fields for Version 2: - -Note: all fields stored in Intel low-byte/high-byte order. - - Value Size Description - ----- ---- ----------- - Compression Method 2 bytes Method used to compress the - Central Directory - Compressed Size 8 bytes Size of the compressed data - Original Size 8 bytes Original uncompressed size - AlgId 2 bytes Encryption algorithm ID - BitLen 2 bytes Encryption key length - Flags 2 bytes Encryption flags - HashID 2 bytes Hash algorithm identifier - Hash Length 2 bytes Length of hash data - Hash Data (variable) Hash data - -The Compression Method accepts the same range of values as the -corresponding field in the Central Header. - -The Compressed Size and Original Size values will not include the -data of the Central Directory Signature which is compressed or -encrypted. - -The AlgId, BitLen, and Flags fields accept the same range of values -the corresponding fields within the 0x0017 record. - -Hash ID identifies the algorithm used to hash the Central Directory -data. This data does not have to be hashed, in which case the -values for both the HashID and Hash Length will be 0. Possible -values for HashID are: - - Value Algorithm - ------ --------- - 0x0000 none - 0x0001 CRC32 - 0x8003 MD5 - 0x8004 SHA1 - 0x8007 RIPEMD160 - 0x800C SHA256 - 0x800D SHA384 - 0x800E SHA512 - -When the Central Directory data is signed, the same hash algorithm -used to hash the Central Directory for signing should be used. -This is recommended for processing efficiency, however, it is -permissible for any of the above algorithms to be used independent -of the signing process. - -The Hash Data will contain the hash data for the Central Directory. -The length of this data will vary depending on the algorithm used. - -The Version Needed to Extract should be set to 62. - -The value for the Total Number of Entries on the Current Disk will -be 0. These records will no longer support random access when -encrypting the Central Directory. - -When the Central Directory is compressed and/or encrypted, the -End of Central Directory record will store the value 0xFFFFFFFF -as the value for the Total Number of Entries in the Central -Directory. The value stored in the Total Number of Entries in -the Central Directory on this Disk field will be 0. The actual -values will be stored in the equivalent fields of the Zip64 -End of Central Directory record. - -Decrypting and decompressing the Central Directory is accomplished -in the same manner as decrypting and decompressing a file. - -Certificate Processing Method: ------------------------------ - -The Certificate Processing Method of for ZIP file encryption -defines the following additional data fields: - -1. Certificate Flag Values - -Additional processing flags that can be present in the Flags field of both -the 0x0017 field of the central directory Extra Field and the Decryption -header record preceding compressed file data are: - - 0x0007 - reserved for future use - 0x000F - reserved for future use - 0x0100 - Indicates non-OAEP key wrapping was used. If this - this field is set, the version needed to extract must - be at least 61. This means OAEP key wrapping is not - used when generating a Master Session Key using - ErdData. - 0x4000 - ErdData must be decrypted using 3DES-168, otherwise use the - same algorithm used for encrypting the file contents. - 0x8000 - reserved for future use - - -2. CertData - Extra Field 0x0017 record certificate data structure - -The data structure used to store certificate data within the section -of the Extra Field defined by the CertData field of the 0x0017 -record are as shown: - - Value Size Description - ----- ---- ----------- - RCount 4 bytes Number of recipients. - HashAlg 2 bytes Hash algorithm identifier - HSize 2 bytes Hash size - SRList (var) Simple list of recipients hashed public keys - - - RCount This defines the number intended recipients whose - public keys were used for encryption. This identifies - the number of elements in the SRList. - - HashAlg This defines the hash algorithm used to calculate - the public key hash of each public key used - for encryption. This field currently supports - only the following value for SHA-1 - - 0x8004 - SHA1 - - HSize This defines the size of a hashed public key. - - SRList This is a variable length list of the hashed - public keys for each intended recipient. Each - element in this list is HSize. The total size of - SRList is determined using RCount * HSize. - - -3. Reserved1 - Certificate Decryption Header Reserved1 Data: - - Value Size Description - ----- ---- ----------- - RCount 4 bytes Number of recipients. - - RCount This defines the number intended recipients whose - public keys were used for encryption. This defines - the number of elements in the REList field defined below. - - -4. Reserved2 - Certificate Decryption Header Reserved2 Data Structures: - - - Value Size Description - ----- ---- ----------- - HashAlg 2 bytes Hash algorithm identifier - HSize 2 bytes Hash size - REList (var) List of recipient data elements - - - HashAlg This defines the hash algorithm used to calculate - the public key hash of each public key used - for encryption. This field currently supports - only the following value for SHA-1 - - 0x8004 - SHA1 - - HSize This defines the size of a hashed public key - defined in REHData. - - REList This is a variable length of list of recipient data. - Each element in this list consists of a Recipient - Element data structure as follows: - - - Recipient Element (REList) Data Structure: - - Value Size Description - ----- ---- ----------- - RESize 2 bytes Size of REHData + REKData - REHData HSize Hash of recipients public key - REKData (var) Simple key blob - - - RESize This defines the size of an individual REList - element. This value is the combined size of the - REHData field + REKData field. REHData is defined by - HSize. REKData is variable and can be calculated - for each REList element using RESize and HSize. - - REHData Hashed public key for this recipient. - - REKData Simple Key Blob. The format of this data structure - is identical to that defined in the Microsoft - CryptoAPI and generated using the CryptExportKey() - function. The version of the Simple Key Blob - supported at this time is 0x02 as defined by - Microsoft. - -Certificate Processing - Central Directory Encryption: ------------------------------------------------------- - -Central Directory Encryption using Digital Certificates will -operate in a manner similar to that of Single Password Central -Directory Encryption. This record will only be present when there -is data to place into it. Currently, data is placed into this -record when digital certificates are used for either encrypting -or signing the files within a ZIP file. When only password -encryption is used with no certificate encryption or digital -signing, this record is not currently needed. When present, this -record will appear before the start of the actual Central Directory -data structure and will be located immediately after the Archive -Decryption Header if the Central Directory is encrypted. - -The Archive Extra Data record will be used to store the following -information. Additional data may be added in future versions. - -Extra Data Fields: - -0x0014 - PKCS#7 Store for X.509 Certificates -0x0016 - X.509 Certificate ID and Signature for central directory -0x0019 - PKCS#7 Encryption Recipient Certificate List - -The 0x0014 and 0x0016 Extra Data records that otherwise would be -located in the first record of the Central Directory for digital -certificate processing. When encrypting or compressing the Central -Directory, the 0x0014 and 0x0016 records must be located in the -Archive Extra Data record and they should not remain in the first -Central Directory record. The Archive Extra Data record will also -be used to store the 0x0019 data. - -When present, the size of the Archive Extra Data record will be -included in the size of the Central Directory. The data of the -Archive Extra Data record will also be compressed and encrypted -along with the Central Directory data structure. - -Certificate Processing Differences: - -The Certificate Processing Method of encryption differs from the -Single Password Symmetric Encryption Method as follows. Instead -of using a user-defined password to generate a master session key, -cryptographically random data is used. The key material is then -wrapped using standard key-wrapping techniques. This key material -is wrapped using the public key of each recipient that will need -to decrypt the file using their corresponding private key. - -This specification currently assumes digital certificates will follow -the X.509 V3 format for 1024 bit and higher RSA format digital -certificates. Implementation of this Certificate Processing Method -requires supporting logic for key access and management. This logic -is outside the scope of this specification. - -OAEP Processing with Certificate-based Encryption: - -OAEP stands for Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding. It is a -strengthening technique used for small encoded items such as decryption -keys. This is commonly applied in cryptographic key-wrapping techniques -and is supported by PKCS #1. Versions 5.0 and 6.0 of this specification -were designed to support OAEP key-wrapping for certificate-based -decryption keys for additional security. - -Support for private keys stored on Smartcards or Tokens introduced -a conflict with this OAEP logic. Most card and token products do -not support the additional strengthening applied to OAEP key-wrapped -data. In order to resolve this conflict, versions 6.1 and above of this -specification will no longer support OAEP when encrypting using -digital certificates. - -Versions of PKZIP available during initial development of the -certificate processing method set a value of 61 into the -version needed to extract field for a file. This indicates that -non-OAEP key wrapping is used. This affects certificate encryption -only, and password encryption functions should not be affected by -this value. This means values of 61 may be found on files encrypted -with certificates only, or on files encrypted with both password -encryption and certificate encryption. Files encrypted with both -methods can safely be decrypted using the password methods documented. - -XVII. Change Process --------------------- - -In order for the .ZIP file format to remain a viable definition, this -specification should be considered as open for periodic review and -revision. Although this format was originally designed with a -certain level of extensibility, not all changes in technology -(present or future) were or will be necessarily considered in its -design. If your application requires new definitions to the -extensible sections in this format, or if you would like to -submit new data structures, please forward your request to -zipformat@pkware.com. All submissions will be reviewed by the -ZIP File Specification Committee for possible inclusion into -future versions of this specification. Periodic revisions -to this specification will be published to ensure interoperability. -We encourage comments and feedback that may help improve clarity -or content. - -XVIII.

This limits storing -file name characters to only those within the original MS-DOS range of values -and does not properly support file names in other character encodings, or -languages. To address this limitation, this specification will support the -following change. - -If general purpose bit 11 is unset, the file name and comment should conform -to the original ZIP character encoding. If general purpose bit 11 is set, the -filename and comment must support The Unicode Standard, Version 4.1.0 or -greater using the character encoding form defined by the UTF-8 storage -specification. The Unicode Standard is published by the The Unicode -Consortium (www.unicode.org). UTF-8 encoded data stored within ZIP files -is expected to not include a byte order mark (BOM). - -Applications may choose to supplement this file name storage through the use -of the 0x0008 Extra Field. Storage for this optional field is currently -undefined, however it will be used to allow storing extended information -on source or target encoding that may further assist applications with file -name, or file content encoding tasks. Please contact PKWARE with any -requirements on how this field should be used. - -The 0x0008 Extra Field storage may be used with either setting for general -purpose bit 11. Examples of the intended usage for this field is to store -whether "modified-UTF-8" (JAVA) is used, or UTF-8-MAC. Similarly, other -commonly used character encoding (code page) designations can be indicated -through this field. Formalized values for use of the 0x0008 record remain -undefined at this time. The definition for the layout of the 0x0008 field -will be published when available. Use of the 0x0008 Extra Field provides -for storing data within a ZIP file in an encoding other than IBM Code -Page 437 or UTF-8. - -General purpose bit 11 will not imply any encoding of file content or -password. Values defining character encoding for file content or -password must be stored within the 0x0008 Extended Language Encoding -Extra Field. - - +File: APPNOTE.TXT - .ZIP File Format Specification +Version: 6.3.3 +Status: Final - replaces version 6.3.2 +Revised: September 1, 2012 +Copyright (c) 1989 - 2012 PKWARE Inc., All Rights Reserved. + +1.0 Introduction +--------------- + +1.1 Purpose +----------- + + 1.1.1 This specification is intended to define a cross-platform, + interoperable file storage and transfer format.

Use of the + extension .ZIPX is also recognized and MAY be used for ZIP files. + Other common file extensions using the ZIP format include .JAR, .WAR, + .DOCX, .XLXS, .PPTX, .ODT, .ODS, .ODP and others. Programs reading or + writing ZIP files SHOULD rely on internal record signatures described + in this document to identify files in this format. + + 4.1.2 ZIP files SHOULD contain at least one file and MAY contain + multiple files. + + 4.1.3 Data compression MAY be used to reduce the size of files + placed into a ZIP file, but is not required. This format supports the + use of multiple data compression algorithms. When compression is used, + one of the documented compression algorithms MUST be used. Implementors + are advised to experiment with their data to determine which of the + available algorithms provides the best compression for their needs. + Compression method 8 (Deflate) is the method used by default by most + ZIP compatible application programs. + + + 4.1.4 Data encryption MAY be used to protect files within a ZIP file. + Keying methods supported for encryption within this format include + passwords and public/private keys. Either MAY be used individually + or in combination. Encryption MAY be applied to individual files. + Additional security MAY be used through the encryption of ZIP file + metadata stored within the Central Directory. See the section on the + Strong Encryption Specification for information. Refer to the section + in this document entitled "Incorporating PKWARE Proprietary Technology + into Your Product" for more information. + + 4.1.5 Data integrity MUST be provided for each file using CRC32. + + 4.1.6 Additional data integrity MAY be included through the use of + digital signatures. Individual files MAY be signed with one or more + digital signatures. The Central Directory, if signed, MUST use a + single signature. + + 4.1.7 Files MAY be placed within a ZIP file uncompressed or stored. + The term "stored" as used in the context of this document means the file + is copied into the ZIP file uncompressed. + + 4.1.8 Each data file placed into a ZIP file MAY be compressed, stored, + encrypted or digitally signed independent of how other data files in the + same ZIP file are archived. + + 4.1.9 ZIP files MAY be streamed, split into segments (on fixed or on + removable media) or "self-extracting". Self-extracting ZIP + files MUST include extraction code for a target platform within + the ZIP file. + + 4.1.10 Extensibility is provided for platform or application specific + needs through extra data fields that MAY be defined for custom + purposes. Extra data definitions MUST NOT conflict with existing + documented record definitions. + + 4.1.11 Common uses for ZIP MAY also include the use of manifest files. + Manifest files store application specific information within a file stored + within the ZIP file. This manifest file SHOULD be the first file in the + ZIP file. This specification does not provide any information or guidance on + the use of manifest files within ZIP files. Refer to the application developer + for information on using manifest files and for any additional profile + information on using ZIP within an application. + + 4.1.12 ZIP files MAY be placed within other ZIP files. + +4.2 ZIP Metadata +---------------- + + 4.2.1 ZIP files are identified by metadata consisting of defined record types + containing the storage information necessary for maintaining the files + placed into a ZIP file. Each record type MUST be identified using a header + signature that identifies the record type. Signature values begin with the + two byte constant marker of 0x4b50, representing the characters "PK". + + +4.3 General Format of a .ZIP file +--------------------------------- + + 4.3.1 A ZIP file MUST contain an "end of central directory record". A ZIP + file containing only an "end of central directory record" is considered an + empty ZIP file. Files may be added or replaced within a ZIP file, or deleted. + A ZIP file MUST have only one "end of central directory record". Other + records defined in this specification MAY be used as needed to support + storage requirements for individual ZIP files. + + 4.3.2 Each file placed into a ZIP file MUST be preceeded by a "local + file header" record for that file. Each "local file header" MUST be + accompanied by a corresponding "central directory header" record within + the central directory section of the ZIP file. + + 4.3.3 Files MAY be stored in arbitrary order within a ZIP file. A ZIP + file MAY span multiple volumes or it MAY be split into user-defined + segment sizes. All values MUST be stored in little-endian byte order unless + otherwise specified in this document for a specific data element. + + 4.3.4 Compression MUST NOT be applied to a "local file header", an "encryption + header", or an "end of central directory record". Individual "central + directory records" must not be compressed, but the aggregate of all central + directory records MAY be compressed. + + 4.3.5 File data MAY be followed by a "data descriptor" for the file. Data + descriptors are used to facilitate ZIP file streaming. + + + 4.3.6 Overall .ZIP file format: + + [local file header 1] + [encryption header 1] + [file data 1] + [data descriptor 1] + . + . + . + [local file header n] + [encryption header n] + [file data n] + [data descriptor n] + [archive decryption header] + [archive extra data record] + [central directory header 1] + . + . + . + [central directory header n] + [zip64 end of central directory record] + [zip64 end of central directory locator] + [end of central directory record] + + + 4.3.7 Local file header: + + local file header signature 4 bytes (0x04034b50) + version needed to extract 2 bytes + general purpose bit flag 2 bytes + compression method 2 bytes + last mod file time 2 bytes + last mod file date 2 bytes + crc-32 4 bytes + compressed size 4 bytes + uncompressed size 4 bytes + file name length 2 bytes + extra field length 2 bytes + + file name (variable size) + extra field (variable size) + + 4.3.8 File data + + Immediately following the local header for a file + SHOULD be placed the compressed or stored data for the file. + If the file is encrypted, the encryption header for the file + SHOULD be placed after the local header and before the file + data. The series of [local file header][encryption header] + [file data][data descriptor] repeats for each file in the + .ZIP archive. + + Zero-byte files, directories, and other file types that + contain no content MUST not include file data. + + 4.3.9 Data descriptor: + + crc-32 4 bytes + compressed size 4 bytes + uncompressed size 4 bytes + + 4.3.9.1 This descriptor MUST exist if bit 3 of the general + purpose bit flag is set (see below). It is byte aligned + and immediately follows the last byte of compressed data. + This descriptor SHOULD be used only when it was not possible to + seek in the output .ZIP file, e.g., when the output .ZIP file + was standard output or a non-seekable device. For ZIP64(tm) format + archives, the compressed and uncompressed sizes are 8 bytes each. + + 4.3.9.2 When compressing files, compressed and uncompressed sizes + should be stored in ZIP64 format (as 8 byte values) when a + file's size exceeds 0xFFFFFFFF. However ZIP64 format may be + used regardless of the size of a file. When extracting, if + the zip64 extended information extra field is present for + the file the compressed and uncompressed sizes will be 8 + byte values. + + 4.3.9.3 Although not originally assigned a signature, the value + 0x08074b50 has commonly been adopted as a signature value + for the data descriptor record. Implementers should be + aware that ZIP files may be encountered with or without this + signature marking data descriptors and SHOULD account for + either case when reading ZIP files to ensure compatibility. + + 4.3.9.4 When writing ZIP files, implementors SHOULD include the + signature value marking the data descriptor record. When + the signature is used, the fields currently defined for + the data descriptor record will immediately follow the + signature. + + 4.3.9.5 An extensible data descriptor will be released in a + future version of this APPNOTE. This new record is intended to + resolve conflicts with the use of this record going forward, + and to provide better support for streamed file processing. + + 4.3.9.6 When the Central Directory Encryption method is used, + the data descriptor record is not required, but MAY be used. + If present, and bit 3 of the general purpose bit field is set to + indicate its presence, the values in fields of the data descriptor + record MUST be set to binary zeros. See the section on the Strong + Encryption Specification for information. Refer to the section in + this document entitled "Incorporating PKWARE Proprietary Technology + into Your Product" for more information. + + + 4.3.10 Archive decryption header: + + 4.3.10.1 The Archive Decryption Header is introduced in version 6.2 + of the ZIP format specification. This record exists in support + of the Central Directory Encryption Feature implemented as part of + the Strong Encryption Specification as described in this document. + When the Central Directory Structure is encrypted, this decryption + header MUST precede the encrypted data segment. + + 4.3.10.2 The encrypted data segment SHALL consist of the Archive + extra data record (if present) and the encrypted Central Directory + Structure data. The format of this data record is identical to the + Decryption header record preceding compressed file data. If the + central directory structure is encrypted, the location of the start of + this data record is determined using the Start of Central Directory + field in the Zip64 End of Central Directory record. See the + section on the Strong Encryption Specification for information + on the fields used in the Archive Decryption Header record. + Refer to the section in this document entitled "Incorporating + PKWARE Proprietary Technology into Your Product" for more information. + + + 4.3.11 Archive extra data record: + + archive extra data signature 4 bytes (0x08064b50) + extra field length 4 bytes + extra field data (variable size) + + 4.3.11.1 The Archive Extra Data Record is introduced in version 6.2 + of the ZIP format specification. This record MAY be used in support + of the Central Directory Encryption Feature implemented as part of + the Strong Encryption Specification as described in this document. + When present, this record MUST immediately precede the central + directory data structure. + + 4.3.11.2 The size of this data record SHALL be included in the + Size of the Central Directory field in the End of Central + Directory record. If the central directory structure is compressed, + but not encrypted, the location of the start of this data record is + determined using the Start of Central Directory field in the Zip64 + End of Central Directory record. Refer to the section in this document + entitled "Incorporating PKWARE Proprietary Technology into Your + Product" for more information. + + 4.3.12 Central directory structure: + + [central directory header 1] + . + . + . + [central directory header n] + [digital signature] + + File header: + + central file header signature 4 bytes (0x02014b50) + version made by 2 bytes + version needed to extract 2 bytes + general purpose bit flag 2 bytes + compression method 2 bytes + last mod file time 2 bytes + last mod file date 2 bytes + crc-32 4 bytes + compressed size 4 bytes + uncompressed size 4 bytes + file name length 2 bytes + extra field length 2 bytes + file comment length 2 bytes + disk number start 2 bytes + internal file attributes 2 bytes + external file attributes 4 bytes + relative offset of local header 4 bytes + + file name (variable size) + extra field (variable size) + file comment (variable size) + + 4.3.13 Digital signature: + + header signature 4 bytes (0x05054b50) + size of data 2 bytes + signature data (variable size) + + With the introduction of the Central Directory Encryption + feature in version 6.2 of this specification, the Central + Directory Structure MAY be stored both compressed and encrypted. + Although not required, it is assumed when encrypting the + Central Directory Structure, that it will be compressed + for greater storage efficiency. Information on the + Central Directory Encryption feature can be found in the section + describing the Strong Encryption Specification. The Digital + Signature record will be neither compressed nor encrypted. + + 4.3.14 Zip64 end of central directory record + + zip64 end of central dir + signature 4 bytes (0x06064b50) + size of zip64 end of central + directory record 8 bytes + version made by 2 bytes + version needed to extract 2 bytes + number of this disk 4 bytes + number of the disk with the + start of the central directory 4 bytes + total number of entries in the + central directory on this disk 8 bytes + total number of entries in the + central directory 8 bytes + size of the central directory 8 bytes + offset of start of central + directory with respect to + the starting disk number 8 bytes + zip64 extensible data sector (variable size) + + 4.3.14.1 The value stored into the "size of zip64 end of central + directory record" should be the size of the remaining + record and should not include the leading 12 bytes. + + Size = SizeOfFixedFields + SizeOfVariableData - 12. + + 4.3.14.2 The above record structure defines Version 1 of the + zip64 end of central directory record. Version 1 was + implemented in versions of this specification preceding + 6.2 in support of the ZIP64 large file feature. The + introduction of the Central Directory Encryption feature + implemented in version 6.2 as part of the Strong Encryption + Specification defines Version 2 of this record structure. + Refer to the section describing the Strong Encryption + Specification for details on the version 2 format for + this record. Refer to the section in this document entitled + "Incorporating PKWARE Proprietary Technology into Your Product" + for more information applicable to use of Version 2 of this + record. + + 4.3.14.3 Special purpose data MAY reside in the zip64 extensible + data sector field following either a V1 or V2 version of this + record. To ensure identification of this special purpose data + it must include an identifying header block consisting of the + following: + + Header ID - 2 bytes + Data Size - 4 bytes + + The Header ID field indicates the type of data that is in the + data block that follows. + + Data Size identifies the number of bytes that follow for this + data block type. + + 4.3.14.4 Multiple special purpose data blocks MAY be present. + Each MUST be preceded by a Header ID and Data Size field. Current + mappings of Header ID values supported in this field are as + defined in APPENDIX C. + + 4.3.15 Zip64 end of central directory locator + + zip64 end of central dir locator + signature 4 bytes (0x07064b50) + number of the disk with the + start of the zip64 end of + central directory 4 bytes + relative offset of the zip64 + end of central directory record 8 bytes + total number of disks 4 bytes + + 4.3.16 End of central directory record: + + end of central dir signature 4 bytes (0x06054b50) + number of this disk 2 bytes + number of the disk with the + start of the central directory 2 bytes + total number of entries in the + central directory on this disk 2 bytes + total number of entries in + the central directory 2 bytes + size of the central directory 4 bytes + offset of start of central + directory with respect to + the starting disk number 4 bytes + .ZIP file comment length 2 bytes + .ZIP file comment (variable size) + +4.4 Explanation of fields +-------------------------- + + 4.4.1 General notes on fields + + 4.4.1.1 All fields unless otherwise noted are unsigned and stored + in Intel low-byte:high-byte, low-word:high-word order. + + 4.4.1.2 String fields are not null terminated, since the length + is given explicitly. + + 4.4.1.3 The entries in the central directory may not necessarily + be in the same order that files appear in the .ZIP file. + + 4.4.1.4 If one of the fields in the end of central directory + record is too small to hold required data, the field should be + set to -1 (0xFFFF or 0xFFFFFFFF) and the ZIP64 format record + should be created. + + 4.4.1.5 The end of central directory record and the Zip64 end + of central directory locator record MUST reside on the same + disk when splitting or spanning an archive. + + 4.4.2 version made by (2 bytes) + + 4.4.2.1 The upper byte indicates the compatibility of the file + attribute information.

Sams & Co. Inc. The 'magic number' for + the CRC is 0xdebb20e3. The proper CRC pre and post + conditioning is used, meaning that the CRC register + is pre-conditioned with all ones (a starting value + of 0xffffffff) and the value is post-conditioned by + taking the one's complement of the CRC residual. + If bit 3 of the general purpose flag is set, this + field is set to zero in the local header and the correct + value is put in the data descriptor and in the central + directory.

However, some applications may use a manifest + file as a means for storing additional information. One + example is the META-INF/MANIFEST.MF file used in ZIP formatted + files having the .JAR extension (JAR files). + + 4.7.2 A manifest file is a file created for the application process + that requires this information. A manifest file MAY be of any + file type required by the defining application process. It is + placed within the same ZIP file as files to which this information + applies. By convention, this file is typically the first file placed + into the ZIP file and it may include a defined directory path. + + 4.7.3 Manifest files may be compressed or encrypted as needed for + application processing of the files inside the ZIP files. + + Manifest files are outside of the scope of this specification. + + +5.0 Explanation of compression methods +-------------------------------------- + + +5.1 UnShrinking - Method 1 +-------------------------- + + 5.1.1 Shrinking is a Dynamic Ziv-Lempel-Welch compression algorithm + with partial clearing. The initial code size is 9 bits, and the + maximum code size is 13 bits. Shrinking differs from conventional + Dynamic Ziv-Lempel-Welch implementations in several respects: + + 5.1.2 The code size is controlled by the compressor, and is + not automatically increased when codes larger than the current + code size are created (but not necessarily used). When + the decompressor encounters the code sequence 256 + (decimal) followed by 1, it should increase the code size + read from the input stream to the next bit size. No + blocking of the codes is performed, so the next code at + the increased size should be read from the input stream + immediately after where the previous code at the smaller + bit size was read. Again, the decompressor should not + increase the code size used until the sequence 256,1 is + encountered. + + 5.1.3 When the table becomes full, total clearing is not + performed. Rather, when the compressor emits the code + sequence 256,2 (decimal), the decompressor should clear + all leaf nodes from the Ziv-Lempel tree, and continue to + use the current code size. The nodes that are cleared + from the Ziv-Lempel tree are then re-used, with the lowest + code value re-used first, and the highest code value + re-used last. The compressor can emit the sequence 256,2 + at any time. + +5.2 Expanding - Methods 2-5 +--------------------------- + + 5.2.1 The Reducing algorithm is actually a combination of two + distinct algorithms. The first algorithm compresses repeated + byte sequences, and the second algorithm takes the compressed + stream from the first algorithm and applies a probabilistic + compression method. + + 5.2.2 The probabilistic compression stores an array of 'follower + sets' S(j), for j=0 to 255, corresponding to each possible + ASCII character. Each set contains between 0 and 32 + characters, to be denoted as S(j)[0],...,S(j)[m], where m<32. + The sets are stored at the beginning of the data area for a + Reduced file, in reverse order, with S(255) first, and S(0) + last. + + 5.2.3 The sets are encoded as { N(j), S(j)[0],...,S(j)[N(j)-1] }, + where N(j) is the size of set S(j). N(j) can be 0, in which + case the follower set for S(j) is empty. Each N(j) value is + encoded in 6 bits, followed by N(j) eight bit character values + corresponding to S(j)[0] to S(j)[N(j)-1] respectively. If + N(j) is 0, then no values for S(j) are stored, and the value + for N(j-1) immediately follows. + + 5.2.4 Immediately after the follower sets, is the compressed data + stream. The compressed data stream can be interpreted for the + probabilistic decompression as follows: + + let Last-Character <- 0. + loop until done + if the follower set S(Last-Character) is empty then + read 8 bits from the input stream, and copy this + value to the output stream. + otherwise if the follower set S(Last-Character) is non-empty then + read 1 bit from the input stream. + if this bit is not zero then + read 8 bits from the input stream, and copy this + value to the output stream. + otherwise if this bit is zero then + read B(N(Last-Character)) bits from the input + stream, and assign this value to I. + Copy the value of S(Last-Character)[I] to the + output stream. + + assign the last value placed on the output stream to + Last-Character. + end loop + + B(N(j)) is defined as the minimal number of bits required to + encode the value N(j)-1. + + 5.2.5 The decompressed stream from above can then be expanded to + re-create the original file as follows: + + let State <- 0. + + loop until done + read 8 bits from the input stream into C. + case State of + 0: if C is not equal to DLE (144 decimal) then + copy C to the output stream. + otherwise if C is equal to DLE then + let State <- 1. + + 1: if C is non-zero then + let V <- C. + let Len <- L(V) + let State <- F(Len). + otherwise if C is zero then + copy the value 144 (decimal) to the output stream. + let State <- 0 + + 2: let Len <- Len + C + let State <- 3. + + 3: move backwards D(V,C) bytes in the output stream + (if this position is before the start of the output + stream, then assume that all the data before the + start of the output stream is filled with zeros). + copy Len+3 bytes from this position to the output stream. + let State <- 0. + end case + end loop + + The functions F,L, and D are dependent on the 'compression + factor', 1 through 4, and are defined as follows: + + For compression factor 1: + L(X) equals the lower 7 bits of X. + F(X) equals 2 if X equals 127 otherwise F(X) equals 3. + D(X,Y) equals the (upper 1 bit of X) * 256 + Y + 1. + For compression factor 2: + L(X) equals the lower 6 bits of X. + F(X) equals 2 if X equals 63 otherwise F(X) equals 3. + D(X,Y) equals the (upper 2 bits of X) * 256 + Y + 1. + For compression factor 3: + L(X) equals the lower 5 bits of X. + F(X) equals 2 if X equals 31 otherwise F(X) equals 3. + D(X,Y) equals the (upper 3 bits of X) * 256 + Y + 1. + For compression factor 4: + L(X) equals the lower 4 bits of X. + F(X) equals 2 if X equals 15 otherwise F(X) equals 3. + D(X,Y) equals the (upper 4 bits of X) * 256 + Y + 1. + +5.3 Imploding - Method 6 +------------------------ + + 5.3.1 The Imploding algorithm is actually a combination of two + distinct algorithms. The first algorithm compresses repeated byte + sequences using a sliding dictionary. The second algorithm is + used to compress the encoding of the sliding dictionary output, + using multiple Shannon-Fano trees. + + 5.3.2 The Imploding algorithm can use a 4K or 8K sliding dictionary + size. The dictionary size used can be determined by bit 1 in the + general purpose flag word; a 0 bit indicates a 4K dictionary + while a 1 bit indicates an 8K dictionary. + + 5.3.3 The Shannon-Fano trees are stored at the start of the + compressed file. The number of trees stored is defined by bit 2 in + the general purpose flag word; a 0 bit indicates two trees stored, + a 1 bit indicates three trees are stored. If 3 trees are stored, + the first Shannon-Fano tree represents the encoding of the + Literal characters, the second tree represents the encoding of + the Length information, the third represents the encoding of the + Distance information. When 2 Shannon-Fano trees are stored, the + Length tree is stored first, followed by the Distance tree. + + 5.3.4 The Literal Shannon-Fano tree, if present is used to represent + the entire ASCII character set, and contains 256 values. This + tree is used to compress any data not compressed by the sliding + dictionary algorithm. When this tree is present, the Minimum + Match Length for the sliding dictionary is 3. If this tree is + not present, the Minimum Match Length is 2. + + 5.3.5 The Length Shannon-Fano tree is used to compress the Length + part of the (length,distance) pairs from the sliding dictionary + output. The Length tree contains 64 values, ranging from the + Minimum Match Length, to 63 plus the Minimum Match Length. + + 5.3.6 The Distance Shannon-Fano tree is used to compress the Distance + part of the (length,distance) pairs from the sliding dictionary + output. The Distance tree contains 64 values, ranging from 0 to + 63, representing the upper 6 bits of the distance value. The + distance values themselves will be between 0 and the sliding + dictionary size, either 4K or 8K. + + 5.3.7 The Shannon-Fano trees themselves are stored in a compressed + format. The first byte of the tree data represents the number of + bytes of data representing the (compressed) Shannon-Fano tree + minus 1. The remaining bytes represent the Shannon-Fano tree + data encoded as: + + High 4 bits: Number of values at this bit length + 1. (1 - 16) + Low 4 bits: Bit Length needed to represent value + 1. (1 - 16) + + 5.3.8 The Shannon-Fano codes can be constructed from the bit lengths + using the following algorithm: + + 1) Sort the Bit Lengths in ascending order, while retaining the + order of the original lengths stored in the file. + + 2) Generate the Shannon-Fano trees: + + Code <- 0 + CodeIncrement <- 0 + LastBitLength <- 0 + i <- number of Shannon-Fano codes - 1 (either 255 or 63) + + loop while i >= 0 + Code = Code + CodeIncrement + if BitLength(i) <> LastBitLength then + LastBitLength=BitLength(i) + CodeIncrement = 1 shifted left (16 - LastBitLength) + ShannonCode(i) = Code + i <- i - 1 + end loop + + 3) Reverse the order of all the bits in the above ShannonCode() + vector, so that the most significant bit becomes the least + significant bit. For example, the value 0x1234 (hex) would + become 0x2C48 (hex). + + 4) Restore the order of Shannon-Fano codes as originally stored + within the file. + + Example: + + This example will show the encoding of a Shannon-Fano tree + of size 8. Notice that the actual Shannon-Fano trees used + for Imploding are either 64 or 256 entries in size. + + Example: 0x02, 0x42, 0x01, 0x13 + + The first byte indicates 3 values in this table. Decoding the + bytes: + 0x42 = 5 codes of 3 bits long + 0x01 = 1 code of 2 bits long + 0x13 = 2 codes of 4 bits long + + This would generate the original bit length array of: + (3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 2, 4, 4) + + There are 8 codes in this table for the values 0 thru 7. Using + the algorithm to obtain the Shannon-Fano codes produces: + + Reversed Order Original + Val Sorted Constructed Code Value Restored Length + --- ------ ----------------- -------- -------- ------ + 0: 2 1100000000000000 11 101 3 + 1: 3 1010000000000000 101 001 3 + 2: 3 1000000000000000 001 110 3 + 3: 3 0110000000000000 110 010 3 + 4: 3 0100000000000000 010 100 3 + 5: 3 0010000000000000 100 11 2 + 6: 4 0001000000000000 1000 1000 4 + 7: 4 0000000000000000 0000 0000 4 + + The values in the Val, Order Restored and Original Length columns + now represent the Shannon-Fano encoding tree that can be used for + decoding the Shannon-Fano encoded data. How to parse the + variable length Shannon-Fano values from the data stream is beyond + the scope of this document. (See the references listed at the end of + this document for more information.) However, traditional decoding + schemes used for Huffman variable length decoding, such as the + Greenlaw algorithm, can be successfully applied. + + 5.3.9 The compressed data stream begins immediately after the + compressed Shannon-Fano data. The compressed data stream can be + interpreted as follows: + + loop until done + read 1 bit from input stream. + + if this bit is non-zero then (encoded data is literal data) + if Literal Shannon-Fano tree is present + read and decode character using Literal Shannon-Fano tree. + otherwise + read 8 bits from input stream. + copy character to the output stream. + otherwise (encoded data is sliding dictionary match) + if 8K dictionary size + read 7 bits for offset Distance (lower 7 bits of offset). + otherwise + read 6 bits for offset Distance (lower 6 bits of offset). + + using the Distance Shannon-Fano tree, read and decode the + upper 6 bits of the Distance value. + + using the Length Shannon-Fano tree, read and decode + the Length value. + + Length <- Length + Minimum Match Length + + if Length = 63 + Minimum Match Length + read 8 bits from the input stream, + add this value to Length. + + move backwards Distance+1 bytes in the output stream, and + copy Length characters from this position to the output + stream. (if this position is before the start of the output + stream, then assume that all the data before the start of + the output stream is filled with zeros). + end loop + +5.4 Tokenizing - Method 7 +------------------------- + + 5.4.1 This method is not used by PKZIP. + +5.5 Deflating - Method 8 +------------------------ + + 5.5.1 The Deflate algorithm is similar to the Implode algorithm using + a sliding dictionary of up to 32K with secondary compression + from Huffman/Shannon-Fano codes. + + 5.5.2 The compressed data is stored in blocks with a header describing + the block and the Huffman codes used in the data block. The header + format is as follows: + + Bit 0: Last Block bit This bit is set to 1 if this is the last + compressed block in the data. + Bits 1-2: Block type + 00 (0) - Block is stored - All stored data is byte aligned. + Skip bits until next byte, then next word = block + length, followed by the ones compliment of the block + length word. Remaining data in block is the stored + data. + + 01 (1) - Use fixed Huffman codes for literal and distance codes. + Lit Code Bits Dist Code Bits + --------- ---- --------- ---- + 0 - 143 8 0 - 31 5 + 144 - 255 9 + 256 - 279 7 + 280 - 287 8 + + Literal codes 286-287 and distance codes 30-31 are + never used but participate in the huffman construction. + + 10 (2) - Dynamic Huffman codes. (See expanding Huffman codes) + + 11 (3) - Reserved - Flag a "Error in compressed data" if seen. + + 5.5.3 Expanding Huffman Codes + + If the data block is stored with dynamic Huffman codes, the Huffman + codes are sent in the following compressed format: + + 5 Bits: # of Literal codes sent - 256 (256 - 286) + All other codes are never sent. + 5 Bits: # of Dist codes - 1 (1 - 32) + 4 Bits: # of Bit Length codes - 3 (3 - 19) + + The Huffman codes are sent as bit lengths and the codes are built as + described in the implode algorithm. The bit lengths themselves are + compressed with Huffman codes. There are 19 bit length codes: + + 0 - 15: Represent bit lengths of 0 - 15 + 16: Copy the previous bit length 3 - 6 times. + The next 2 bits indicate repeat length (0 = 3, ... ,3 = 6) + Example: Codes 8, 16 (+2 bits 11), 16 (+2 bits 10) will + expand to 12 bit lengths of 8 (1 + 6 + 5) + 17: Repeat a bit length of 0 for 3 - 10 times. (3 bits of length) + 18: Repeat a bit length of 0 for 11 - 138 times (7 bits of length) + + The lengths of the bit length codes are sent packed 3 bits per value + (0 - 7) in the following order: + + 16, 17, 18, 0, 8, 7, 9, 6, 10, 5, 11, 4, 12, 3, 13, 2, 14, 1, 15 + + The Huffman codes should be built as described in the Implode algorithm + except codes are assigned starting at the shortest bit length, i.e. the + shortest code should be all 0's rather than all 1's. Also, codes with + a bit length of zero do not participate in the tree construction. The + codes are then used to decode the bit lengths for the literal and + distance tables. + + The bit lengths for the literal tables are sent first with the number + of entries sent described by the 5 bits sent earlier. There are up + to 286 literal characters; the first 256 represent the respective 8 + bit character, code 256 represents the End-Of-Block code, the remaining + 29 codes represent copy lengths of 3 thru 258.

Deflate64(tm) is supported + by the Deflate extractor. + +5.7 BZIP2 - Method 12 +--------------------- + + 5.7.1 BZIP2 is an open-source data compression algorithm developed by + Julian Seward. Information and source code for this algorithm + can be found on the internet. + +5.8 LZMA - Method 14 +--------------------- + + 5.8.1 LZMA is a block-oriented, general purpose data compression + algorithm developed and maintained by Igor Pavlov. It is a derivative + of LZ77 that utilizes Markov chains and a range coder. Information and + source code for this algorithm can be found on the internet. Consult + with the author of this algorithm for information on terms or + restrictions on use. + + Support for LZMA within the ZIP format is defined as follows: + + 5.8.2 The Compression method field within the ZIP Local and Central + Header records will be set to the value 14 to indicate data was + compressed using LZMA. + + 5.8.3 The Version needed to extract field within the ZIP Local and + Central Header records will be set to 6.3 to indicate the minimum + ZIP format version supporting this feature. + + 5.8.4 File data compressed using the LZMA algorithm must be placed + immediately following the Local Header for the file. If a standard + ZIP encryption header is required, it will follow the Local Header + and will precede the LZMA compressed file data segment. The location + of LZMA compressed data segment within the ZIP format will be as shown: + + [local header file 1] + [encryption header file 1] + [LZMA compressed data segment for file 1] + [data descriptor 1] + [local header file 2] + + 5.8.5 The encryption header and data descriptor records may + be conditionally present. The LZMA Compressed Data Segment + will consist of an LZMA Properties Header followed by the + LZMA Compressed Data as shown: + + [LZMA properties header for file 1] + [LZMA compressed data for file 1] + + 5.8.6 The LZMA Compressed Data will be stored as provided by the + LZMA compression library. Compressed size, uncompressed size and + other file characteristics about the file being compressed must be + stored in standard ZIP storage format. + + 5.8.7 The LZMA Properties Header will store specific data required + to decompress the LZMA compressed Data. This data is set by the + LZMA compression engine using the function WriteCoderProperties() + as documented within the LZMA SDK. + + 5.8.8 Storage fields for the property information within the LZMA + Properties Header are as follows: + + LZMA Version Information 2 bytes + LZMA Properties Size 2 bytes + LZMA Properties Data variable, defined by "LZMA Properties Size" + + 5.8.8.1 LZMA Version Information - this field identifies which version + of the LZMA SDK was used to compress a file. The first byte will + store the major version number of the LZMA SDK and the second + byte will store the minor number. + + 5.8.8.2 LZMA Properties Size - this field defines the size of the + remaining property data. Typically this size should be determined by + the version of the SDK. This size field is included as a convenience + and to help avoid any ambiguity should it arise in the future due + to changes in this compression algorithm. + + 5.8.8.3 LZMA Property Data - this variable sized field records the + required values for the decompressor as defined by the LZMA SDK. + The data stored in this field should be obtained using the + WriteCoderProperties() in the version of the SDK defined by + the "LZMA Version Information" field. + + 5.8.8.4 The layout of the "LZMA Properties Data" field is a function of + the LZMA compression algorithm. It is possible that this layout may be + changed by the author over time. The data layout in version 4.3 of the + LZMA SDK defines a 5 byte array that uses 4 bytes to store the dictionary + size in little-endian order. This is preceded by a single packed byte as + the first element of the array that contains the following fields: + + PosStateBits + LiteralPosStateBits + LiteralContextBits + + Refer to the LZMA documentation for a more detailed explanation of + these fields. + + 5.8.9 Data compressed with method 14, LZMA, may include an end-of-stream + (EOS) marker ending the compressed data stream. This marker is not + required, but its use is highly recommended to facilitate processing + and implementers should include the EOS marker whenever possible. + When the EOS marker is used, general purpose bit 1 must be set. If + general purpose bit 1 is not set, the EOS marker is not present. + +5.9 WavPack - Method 97 +----------------------- + + 5.9.1 Information describing the use of compression method 97 is + provided by WinZIP International, LLC. This method relies on the + open source WavPack audio compression utility developed by David Bryant. + Information on WavPack is available at www.wavpack.com. Please consult + with the author of this algorithm for information on terms and + restrictions on use. + + 5.9.2 WavPack data for a file begins immediately after the end of the + local header data. This data is the output from WavPack compression + routines. Within the ZIP file, the use of WavPack compression is + indicated by setting the compression method field to a value of 97 + in both the local header and the central directory header. The Version + needed to extract and version made by fields use the same values as are + used for data compressed using the Deflate algorithm. + + 5.9.3 An implementation note for storing digital sample data when using + WavPack compression within ZIP files is that all of the bytes of + the sample data should be compressed. This includes any unused + bits up to the byte boundary. An example is a 2 byte sample that + uses only 12 bits for the sample data with 4 unused bits. If only + 12 bits are passed as the sample size to the WavPack routines, the 4 + unused bits will be set to 0 on extraction regardless of their original + state. To avoid this, the full 16 bits of the sample data size + should be provided. + +5.10 PPMd - Method 98 +--------------------- + + 5.10.1 PPMd is a data compression algorithm developed by Dmitry Shkarin + which includes a carryless rangecoder developed by Dmitry Subbotin. + This algorithm is based on predictive phrase matching on multiple + order contexts. Information and source code for this algorithm + can be found on the internet. Consult with the author of this + algorithm for information on terms or restrictions on use. + + 5.10.2 Support for PPMd within the ZIP format currently is provided only + for version I, revision 1 of the algorithm. Storage requirements + for using this algorithm are as follows: + + 5.10.3 Parameters needed to control the algorithm are stored in the two + bytes immediately preceding the compressed data. These bytes are + used to store the following fields: + + Model order - sets the maximum model order, default is 8, possible + values are from 2 to 16 inclusive + + Sub-allocator size - sets the size of sub-allocator in MB, default is 50, + possible values are from 1MB to 256MB inclusive + + Model restoration method - sets the method used to restart context + model at memory insufficiency, values are: + + 0 - restarts model from scratch - default + 1 - cut off model - decreases performance by as much as 2x + 2 - freeze context tree - not recommended + + 5.10.4 An example for packing these fields into the 2 byte storage field is + illustrated below. These values are stored in Intel low-byte/high-byte + order. + + wPPMd = (Model order - 1) + + ((Sub-allocator size - 1) << 4) + + (Model restoration method << 12) + + +6.0 Traditional PKWARE Encryption +---------------------------------- + + 6.0.1 The following information discusses the decryption steps + required to support traditional PKWARE encryption. This + form of encryption is considered weak by today's standards + and its use is recommended only for situations with + low security needs or for compatibility with older .ZIP + applications. + +6.1 Traditional PKWARE Decryption +--------------------------------- + + 6.1.1 PKWARE is grateful to Mr. Roger Schlafly for his expert + contribution towards the development of PKWARE's traditional + encryption. + + 6.1.2 PKZIP encrypts the compressed data stream. Encrypted files + must be decrypted before they can be extracted to their original + form. + + 6.1.3 Each encrypted file has an extra 12 bytes stored at the start + of the data area defining the encryption header for that file. The + encryption header is originally set to random values, and then + itself encrypted, using three, 32-bit keys. The key values are + initialized using the supplied encryption password. After each byte + is encrypted, the keys are then updated using pseudo-random number + generation techniques in combination with the same CRC-32 algorithm + used in PKZIP and described elsewhere in this document. + + 6.1.4 The following are the basic steps required to decrypt a file: + + 1) Initialize the three 32-bit keys with the password. + 2) Read and decrypt the 12-byte encryption header, further + initializing the encryption keys. + 3) Read and decrypt the compressed data stream using the + encryption keys. + + 6.1.5 Initializing the encryption keys + + Key(0) <- 305419896 + Key(1) <- 591751049 + Key(2) <- 878082192 + + loop for i <- 0 to length(password)-1 + update_keys(password(i)) + end loop + + Where update_keys() is defined as: + + update_keys(char): + Key(0) <- crc32(key(0),char) + Key(1) <- Key(1) + (Key(0) & 000000ffH) + Key(1) <- Key(1) * 134775813 + 1 + Key(2) <- crc32(key(2),key(1) >> 24) + end update_keys + + Where crc32(old_crc,char) is a routine that given a CRC value and a + character, returns an updated CRC value after applying the CRC-32 + algorithm described elsewhere in this document. + + 6.1.6 Decrypting the encryption header + + The purpose of this step is to further initialize the encryption + keys, based on random data, to render a plaintext attack on the + data ineffective. + + Read the 12-byte encryption header into Buffer, in locations + Buffer(0) thru Buffer(11). + + loop for i <- 0 to 11 + C <- buffer(i) ^ decrypt_byte() + update_keys(C) + buffer(i) <- C + end loop + + Where decrypt_byte() is defined as: + + unsigned char decrypt_byte() + local unsigned short temp + temp <- Key(2) | 2 + decrypt_byte <- (temp * (temp ^ 1)) >> 8 + end decrypt_byte + + After the header is decrypted, the last 1 or 2 bytes in Buffer + should be the high-order word/byte of the CRC for the file being + decrypted, stored in Intel low-byte/high-byte order. Versions of + PKZIP prior to 2.0 used a 2 byte CRC check; a 1 byte CRC check is + used on versions after 2.0. This can be used to test if the password + supplied is correct or not. + + 6.1.7 Decrypting the compressed data stream + + The compressed data stream can be decrypted as follows: + + loop until done + read a character into C + Temp <- C ^ decrypt_byte() + update_keys(temp) + output Temp + end loop + + +7.0 Strong Encryption Specification +----------------------------------- + + 7.0.1 Portions of the Strong Encryption technology defined in this + specification are covered under patents and pending patent applications. + Refer to the section in this document entitled "Incorporating + PKWARE Proprietary Technology into Your Product" for more information. + +7.1 Strong Encryption Overview +------------------------------ + + 7.1.1 Version 5.x of this specification introduced support for strong + encryption algorithms. These algorithms can be used with either + a password or an X.509v3 digital certificate to encrypt each file. + This format specification supports either password or certificate + based encryption to meet the security needs of today, to enable + interoperability between users within both PKI and non-PKI + environments, and to ensure interoperability between different + computing platforms that are running a ZIP program. + + 7.1.2 Password based encryption is the most common form of encryption + people are familiar with. However, inherent weaknesses with + passwords (e.g. susceptibility to dictionary/brute force attack) + as well as password management and support issues make certificate + based encryption a more secure and scalable option. Industry + efforts and support are defining and moving towards more advanced + security solutions built around X.509v3 digital certificates and + Public Key Infrastructures(PKI) because of the greater scalability, + administrative options, and more robust security over traditional + password based encryption. + + 7.1.3 Most standard encryption algorithms are supported with this + specification. Reference implementations for many of these + algorithms are available from either commercial or open source + distributors. Readily available cryptographic toolkits make + implementation of the encryption features straight-forward. + This document is not intended to provide a treatise on data + encryption principles or theory. Its purpose is to document the + data structures required for implementing interoperable data + encryption within the .ZIP format. It is strongly recommended that + you have a good understanding of data encryption before reading + further. + + 7.1.4 The algorithms introduced in Version 5.0 of this specification + include: + + RC2 40 bit, 64 bit, and 128 bit + RC4 40 bit, 64 bit, and 128 bit + DES + 3DES 112 bit and 168 bit + + Version 5.1 adds support for the following: + + AES 128 bit, 192 bit, and 256 bit + + + 7.1.5 Version 6.1 introduces encryption data changes to support + interoperability with Smartcard and USB Token certificate storage + methods which do not support the OAEP strengthening standard. + + 7.1.6 Version 6.2 introduces support for encrypting metadata by compressing + and encrypting the central directory data structure to reduce information + leakage. Information leakage can occur in legacy ZIP applications + through exposure of information about a file even though that file is + stored encrypted. The information exposed consists of file + characteristics stored within the records and fields defined by this + specification. This includes data such as a file's name, its original + size, timestamp and CRC32 value. + + 7.1.7 Version 6.3 introduces support for encrypting data using the Blowfish + and Twofish algorithms. These are symmetric block ciphers developed + by Bruce Schneier. Blowfish supports using a variable length key from + 32 to 448 bits. Block size is 64 bits. Implementations should use 16 + rounds and the only mode supported within ZIP files is CBC. Twofish + supports key sizes 128, 192 and 256 bits. Block size is 128 bits. + Implementations should use 16 rounds and the only mode supported within + ZIP files is CBC. Information and source code for both Blowfish and + Twofish algorithms can be found on the internet. Consult with the author + of these algorithms for information on terms or restrictions on use. + + 7.1.8 Central Directory Encryption provides greater protection against + information leakage by encrypting the Central Directory structure and + by masking key values that are replicated in the unencrypted Local + Header. ZIP compatible programs that cannot interpret an encrypted + Central Directory structure cannot rely on the data in the corresponding + Local Header for decompression information. + + 7.1.9 Extra Field records that may contain information about a file that should + not be exposed should not be stored in the Local Header and should only + be written to the Central Directory where they can be encrypted. This + design currently does not support streaming. Information in the End of + Central Directory record, the Zip64 End of Central Directory Locator, + and the Zip64 End of Central Directory records are not encrypted. Access + to view data on files within a ZIP file with an encrypted Central Directory + requires the appropriate password or private key for decryption prior to + viewing any files, or any information about the files, in the archive. + + 7.1.10 Older ZIP compatible programs not familiar with the Central Directory + Encryption feature will no longer be able to recognize the Central + Directory and may assume the ZIP file is corrupt. Programs that + attempt streaming access using Local Headers will see invalid + information for each file. Central Directory Encryption need not be + used for every ZIP file. Its use is recommended for greater security. + ZIP files not using Central Directory Encryption should operate as + in the past. + + 7.1.11 This strong encryption feature specification is intended to provide for + scalable, cross-platform encryption needs ranging from simple password + encryption to authenticated public/private key encryption. + + 7.1.12 Encryption provides data confidentiality and privacy. It is + recommended that you combine X.509 digital signing with encryption + to add authentication and non-repudiation. + + +7.2 Single Password Symmetric Encryption Method +----------------------------------------------- + + 7.2.1 The Single Password Symmetric Encryption Method using strong + encryption algorithms operates similarly to the traditional + PKWARE encryption defined in this format. Additional data + structures are added to support the processing needs of the + strong algorithms. + + The Strong Encryption data structures are: + + 7.2.2 General Purpose Bits - Bits 0 and 6 of the General Purpose bit + flag in both local and central header records. Both bits set + indicates strong encryption. Bit 13, when set indicates the Central + Directory is encrypted and that selected fields in the Local Header + are masked to hide their actual value. + + + 7.2.3 Extra Field 0x0017 in central header only. + + Fields to consider in this record are: + + 7.2.3.1 Format - the data format identifier for this record. The only + value allowed at this time is the integer value 2. + + 7.2.3.2 AlgId - integer identifier of the encryption algorithm from the + following range + + 0x6601 - DES + 0x6602 - RC2 (version needed to extract < 5.2) + 0x6603 - 3DES 168 + 0x6609 - 3DES 112 + 0x660E - AES 128 + 0x660F - AES 192 + 0x6610 - AES 256 + 0x6702 - RC2 (version needed to extract >= 5.2) + 0x6720 - Blowfish + 0x6721 - Twofish + 0x6801 - RC4 + 0xFFFF - Unknown algorithm + + 7.2.3.3 Bitlen - Explicit bit length of key + + 32 - 448 bits + + 7.2.3.4 Flags - Processing flags needed for decryption + + 0x0001 - Password is required to decrypt + 0x0002 - Certificates only + 0x0003 - Password or certificate required to decrypt + + Values > 0x0003 reserved for certificate processing + + + 7.2.4 Decryption header record preceding compressed file data. + + -Decryption Header: + + Value Size Description + ----- ---- ----------- + IVSize 2 bytes Size of initialization vector (IV) + IVData IVSize Initialization vector for this file + Size 4 bytes Size of remaining decryption header data + Format 2 bytes Format definition for this record + AlgID 2 bytes Encryption algorithm identifier + Bitlen 2 bytes Bit length of encryption key + Flags 2 bytes Processing flags + ErdSize 2 bytes Size of Encrypted Random Data + ErdData ErdSize Encrypted Random Data + Reserved1 4 bytes Reserved certificate processing data + Reserved2 (var) Reserved for certificate processing data + VSize 2 bytes Size of password validation data + VData VSize-4 Password validation data + VCRC32 4 bytes Standard ZIP CRC32 of password validation data + + 7.2.4.1 IVData - The size of the IV should match the algorithm block size. + The IVData can be completely random data. If the size of + the randomly generated data does not match the block size + it should be complemented with zero's or truncated as + necessary. If IVSize is 0,then IV = CRC32 + Uncompressed + File Size (as a 64 bit little-endian, unsigned integer value). + + 7.2.4.2 Format - the data format identifier for this record. The only + value allowed at this time is the integer value 3. + + 7.2.4.3 AlgId - integer identifier of the encryption algorithm from the + following range + + 0x6601 - DES + 0x6602 - RC2 (version needed to extract < 5.2) + 0x6603 - 3DES 168 + 0x6609 - 3DES 112 + 0x660E - AES 128 + 0x660F - AES 192 + 0x6610 - AES 256 + 0x6702 - RC2 (version needed to extract >= 5.2) + 0x6720 - Blowfish + 0x6721 - Twofish + 0x6801 - RC4 + 0xFFFF - Unknown algorithm + + 7.2.4.4 Bitlen - Explicit bit length of key + + 32 - 448 bits + + 7.2.4.5 Flags - Processing flags needed for decryption + + 0x0001 - Password is required to decrypt + 0x0002 - Certificates only + 0x0003 - Password or certificate required to decrypt + + Values > 0x0003 reserved for certificate processing + + 7.2.4.6 ErdData - Encrypted random data is used to store random data that + is used to generate a file session key for encrypting + each file. SHA1 is used to calculate hash data used to + derive keys. File session keys are derived from a master + session key generated from the user-supplied password. + If the Flags field in the decryption header contains + the value 0x4000, then the ErdData field must be + decrypted using 3DES. If the value 0x4000 is not set, + then the ErdData field must be decrypted using AlgId. + + + 7.2.4.7 Reserved1 - Reserved for certificate processing, if value is + zero, then Reserved2 data is absent. See the explanation + under the Certificate Processing Method for details on + this data structure. + + 7.2.4.8 Reserved2 - If present, the size of the Reserved2 data structure + is located by skipping the first 4 bytes of this field + and using the next 2 bytes as the remaining size. See + the explanation under the Certificate Processing Method + for details on this data structure. + + 7.2.4.9 VSize - This size value will always include the 4 bytes of the + VCRC32 data and will be greater than 4 bytes. + + 7.2.4.10 VData - Random data for password validation. This data is VSize + in length and VSize must be a multiple of the encryption + block size. VCRC32 is a checksum value of VData. + VData and VCRC32 are stored encrypted and start the + stream of encrypted data for a file. + + + 7.2.5 Useful Tips + + 7.2.5.1 Strong Encryption is always applied to a file after compression. The + block oriented algorithms all operate in Cypher Block Chaining (CBC) + mode. The block size used for AES encryption is 16. All other block + algorithms use a block size of 8. Two IDs are defined for RC2 to + account for a discrepancy found in the implementation of the RC2 + algorithm in the cryptographic library on Windows XP SP1 and all + earlier versions of Windows. It is recommended that zero length files + not be encrypted, however programs should be prepared to extract them + if they are found within a ZIP file. + + 7.2.5.2 A pseudo-code representation of the encryption process is as follows: + + Password = GetUserPassword() + MasterSessionKey = DeriveKey(SHA1(Password)) + RD = CryptographicStrengthRandomData() + For Each File + IV = CryptographicStrengthRandomData() + VData = CryptographicStrengthRandomData() + VCRC32 = CRC32(VData) + FileSessionKey = DeriveKey(SHA1(IV + RD) + ErdData = Encrypt(RD,MasterSessionKey,IV) + Encrypt(VData + VCRC32 + FileData, FileSessionKey,IV) + Done + + 7.2.5.3 The function names and parameter requirements will depend on + the choice of the cryptographic toolkit selected. Almost any + toolkit supporting the reference implementations for each + algorithm can be used. The RSA BSAFE(r), OpenSSL, and Microsoft + CryptoAPI libraries are all known to work well. + + + 7.3 Single Password - Central Directory Encryption + -------------------------------------------------- + + 7.3.1 Central Directory Encryption is achieved within the .ZIP format by + encrypting the Central Directory structure. This encapsulates the metadata + most often used for processing .ZIP files. Additional metadata is stored for + redundancy in the Local Header for each file. The process of concealing + metadata by encrypting the Central Directory does not protect the data within + the Local Header. To avoid information leakage from the exposed metadata + in the Local Header, the fields containing information about a file are masked. + + 7.3.2 Local Header + + Masking replaces the true content of the fields for a file in the Local + Header with false information. When masked, the Local Header is not + suitable for streaming access and the options for data recovery of damaged + archives is reduced. Extra Data fields that may contain confidential + data should not be stored within the Local Header. The value set into + the Version needed to extract field should be the correct value needed to + extract the file without regard to Central Directory Encryption. The fields + within the Local Header targeted for masking when the Central Directory is + encrypted are: + + Field Name Mask Value + ------------------ --------------------------- + compression method 0 + last mod file time 0 + last mod file date 0 + crc-32 0 + compressed size 0 + uncompressed size 0 + file name (variable size) Base 16 value from the + range 1 - 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF + represented as a string whose + size will be set into the + file name length field + + The Base 16 value assigned as a masked file name is simply a sequentially + incremented value for each file starting with 1 for the first file. + Modifications to a ZIP file may cause different values to be stored for + each file. For compatibility, the file name field in the Local Header + should never be left blank. As of Version 6.2 of this specification, + the Compression Method and Compressed Size fields are not yet masked. + Fields having a value of 0xFFFF or 0xFFFFFFFF for the ZIP64 format + should not be masked. + + 7.3.3 Encrypting the Central Directory + + Encryption of the Central Directory does not include encryption of the + Central Directory Signature data, the Zip64 End of Central Directory + record, the Zip64 End of Central Directory Locator, or the End + of Central Directory record. The ZIP file comment data is never + encrypted. + + Before encrypting the Central Directory, it may optionally be compressed. + Compression is not required, but for storage efficiency it is assumed + this structure will be compressed before encrypting. Similarly, this + specification supports compressing the Central Directory without + requiring that it also be encrypted. Early implementations of this + feature will assume the encryption method applied to files matches the + encryption applied to the Central Directory. + + Encryption of the Central Directory is done in a manner similar to + that of file encryption. The encrypted data is preceded by a + decryption header. The decryption header is known as the Archive + Decryption Header. The fields of this record are identical to + the decryption header preceding each encrypted file. The location + of the Archive Decryption Header is determined by the value in the + Start of the Central Directory field in the Zip64 End of Central + Directory record. When the Central Directory is encrypted, the + Zip64 End of Central Directory record will always be present. + + The layout of the Zip64 End of Central Directory record for all + versions starting with 6.2 of this specification will follow the + Version 2 format. The Version 2 format is as follows: + + The leading fixed size fields within the Version 1 format for this + record remain unchanged. The record signature for both Version 1 + and Version 2 will be 0x06064b50. Immediately following the last + byte of the field known as the Offset of Start of Central + Directory With Respect to the Starting Disk Number will begin the + new fields defining Version 2 of this record. + + 7.3.4 New fields for Version 2 + + Note: all fields stored in Intel low-byte/high-byte order. + + Value Size Description + ----- ---- ----------- + Compression Method 2 bytes Method used to compress the + Central Directory + Compressed Size 8 bytes Size of the compressed data + Original Size 8 bytes Original uncompressed size + AlgId 2 bytes Encryption algorithm ID + BitLen 2 bytes Encryption key length + Flags 2 bytes Encryption flags + HashID 2 bytes Hash algorithm identifier + Hash Length 2 bytes Length of hash data + Hash Data (variable) Hash data + + The Compression Method accepts the same range of values as the + corresponding field in the Central Header. + + The Compressed Size and Original Size values will not include the + data of the Central Directory Signature which is compressed or + encrypted. + + The AlgId, BitLen, and Flags fields accept the same range of values + the corresponding fields within the 0x0017 record. + + Hash ID identifies the algorithm used to hash the Central Directory + data. This data does not have to be hashed, in which case the + values for both the HashID and Hash Length will be 0. Possible + values for HashID are: + + Value Algorithm + ------ --------- + 0x0000 none + 0x0001 CRC32 + 0x8003 MD5 + 0x8004 SHA1 + 0x8007 RIPEMD160 + 0x800C SHA256 + 0x800D SHA384 + 0x800E SHA512 + + 7.3.5 When the Central Directory data is signed, the same hash algorithm + used to hash the Central Directory for signing should be used. + This is recommended for processing efficiency, however, it is + permissible for any of the above algorithms to be used independent + of the signing process. + + The Hash Data will contain the hash data for the Central Directory. + The length of this data will vary depending on the algorithm used. + + The Version Needed to Extract should be set to 62. + + The value for the Total Number of Entries on the Current Disk will + be 0. These records will no longer support random access when + encrypting the Central Directory. + + 7.3.6 When the Central Directory is compressed and/or encrypted, the + End of Central Directory record will store the value 0xFFFFFFFF + as the value for the Total Number of Entries in the Central + Directory. The value stored in the Total Number of Entries in + the Central Directory on this Disk field will be 0. The actual + values will be stored in the equivalent fields of the Zip64 + End of Central Directory record. + + 7.3.7 Decrypting and decompressing the Central Directory is accomplished + in the same manner as decrypting and decompressing a file. + + 7.4 Certificate Processing Method + --------------------------------- + + The Certificate Processing Method for ZIP file encryption + defines the following additional data fields: + + 7.4.1 Certificate Flag Values + + Additional processing flags that can be present in the Flags field of both + the 0x0017 field of the central directory Extra Field and the Decryption + header record preceding compressed file data are: + + 0x0007 - reserved for future use + 0x000F - reserved for future use + 0x0100 - Indicates non-OAEP key wrapping was used. If this + this field is set, the version needed to extract must + be at least 61. This means OAEP key wrapping is not + used when generating a Master Session Key using + ErdData. + 0x4000 - ErdData must be decrypted using 3DES-168, otherwise use the + same algorithm used for encrypting the file contents. + 0x8000 - reserved for future use + + + 7.4.2 CertData - Extra Field 0x0017 record certificate data structure + + The data structure used to store certificate data within the section + of the Extra Field defined by the CertData field of the 0x0017 + record are as shown: + + Value Size Description + ----- ---- ----------- + RCount 4 bytes Number of recipients. + HashAlg 2 bytes Hash algorithm identifier + HSize 2 bytes Hash size + SRList (var) Simple list of recipients hashed public keys + + + RCount This defines the number intended recipients whose + public keys were used for encryption. This identifies + the number of elements in the SRList. + + HashAlg This defines the hash algorithm used to calculate + the public key hash of each public key used + for encryption. This field currently supports + only the following value for SHA-1 + + 0x8004 - SHA1 + + HSize This defines the size of a hashed public key. + + SRList This is a variable length list of the hashed + public keys for each intended recipient. Each + element in this list is HSize. The total size of + SRList is determined using RCount * HSize. + + + 7.4.3 Reserved1 - Certificate Decryption Header Reserved1 Data + + Value Size Description + ----- ---- ----------- + RCount 4 bytes Number of recipients. + + RCount This defines the number intended recipients whose + public keys were used for encryption.

This field currently supports + only the following value for SHA-1 + + 0x8004 - SHA1 + + HSize This defines the size of a hashed public key + defined in REHData. + + REList This is a variable length of list of recipient data. + Each element in this list consists of a Recipient + Element data structure as follows: + + + Recipient Element (REList) Data Structure: + + Value Size Description + ----- ---- ----------- + RESize 2 bytes Size of REHData + REKData + REHData HSize Hash of recipients public key + REKData (var) Simple key blob + + + RESize This defines the size of an individual REList + element. This value is the combined size of the + REHData field + REKData field. REHData is defined by + HSize. REKData is variable and can be calculated + for each REList element using RESize and HSize. + + REHData Hashed public key for this recipient. + + REKData Simple Key Blob. The format of this data structure + is identical to that defined in the Microsoft + CryptoAPI and generated using the CryptExportKey() + function. The version of the Simple Key Blob + supported at this time is 0x02 as defined by + Microsoft. + +7.5 Certificate Processing - Central Directory Encryption +--------------------------------------------------------- + + 7.5.1 Central Directory Encryption using Digital Certificates will + operate in a manner similar to that of Single Password Central + Directory Encryption. This record will only be present when there + is data to place into it. Currently, data is placed into this + record when digital certificates are used for either encrypting + or signing the files within a ZIP file. When only password + encryption is used with no certificate encryption or digital + signing, this record is not currently needed. When present, this + record will appear before the start of the actual Central Directory + data structure and will be located immediately after the Archive + Decryption Header if the Central Directory is encrypted. + + 7.5.2 The Archive Extra Data record will be used to store the following + information. Additional data may be added in future versions. + + Extra Data Fields: + + 0x0014 - PKCS#7 Store for X.509 Certificates + 0x0016 - X.509 Certificate ID and Signature for central directory + 0x0019 - PKCS#7 Encryption Recipient Certificate List + + The 0x0014 and 0x0016 Extra Data records that otherwise would be + located in the first record of the Central Directory for digital + certificate processing. When encrypting or compressing the Central + Directory, the 0x0014 and 0x0016 records must be located in the + Archive Extra Data record and they should not remain in the first + Central Directory record. The Archive Extra Data record will also + be used to store the 0x0019 data. + + 7.5.3 When present, the size of the Archive Extra Data record will be + included in the size of the Central Directory. The data of the + Archive Extra Data record will also be compressed and encrypted + along with the Central Directory data structure. + +7.6 Certificate Processing Differences +-------------------------------------- + + 7.6.1 The Certificate Processing Method of encryption differs from the + Single Password Symmetric Encryption Method as follows. Instead + of using a user-defined password to generate a master session key, + cryptographically random data is used. The key material is then + wrapped using standard key-wrapping techniques. This key material + is wrapped using the public key of each recipient that will need + to decrypt the file using their corresponding private key. + + 7.6.2 This specification currently assumes digital certificates will follow + the X.509 V3 format for 1024 bit and higher RSA format digital + certificates. Implementation of this Certificate Processing Method + requires supporting logic for key access and management. This logic + is outside the scope of this specification. + +7.7 OAEP Processing with Certificate-based Encryption +----------------------------------------------------- + + 7.7.1 OAEP stands for Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding. It is a + strengthening technique used for small encoded items such as decryption + keys. This is commonly applied in cryptographic key-wrapping techniques + and is supported by PKCS #1. Versions 5.0 and 6.0 of this specification + were designed to support OAEP key-wrapping for certificate-based + decryption keys for additional security. + + 7.7.2 Support for private keys stored on Smartcards or Tokens introduced + a conflict with this OAEP logic. Most card and token products do + not support the additional strengthening applied to OAEP key-wrapped + data. In order to resolve this conflict, versions 6.1 and above of this + specification will no longer support OAEP when encrypting using + digital certificates. + + 7.7.3 Versions of PKZIP available during initial development of the + certificate processing method set a value of 61 into the + version needed to extract field for a file. This indicates that + non-OAEP key wrapping is used. This affects certificate encryption + only, and password encryption functions should not be affected by + this value. This means values of 61 may be found on files encrypted + with certificates only, or on files encrypted with both password + encryption and certificate encryption. Files encrypted with both + methods can safely be decrypted using the password methods documented. + +8.0 Splitting and Spanning ZIP files +------------------------------------- + + 8.1 Spanned ZIP files + + 8.1.1 Spanning is the process of segmenting a ZIP file across + multiple removable media. This support has typically only + been provided for DOS formatted floppy diskettes. + + 8.2 Split ZIP files + + 8.2.1 File splitting is a newer derivation of spanning. + Splitting follows the same segmentation process as + spanning, however, it does not require writing each + segment to a unique removable medium and instead supports + placing all pieces onto local or non-removable locations + such as file systems, local drives, folders, etc. + + 8.3 File Naming Differences + + 8.3.1 A key difference between spanned and split ZIP files is + that all pieces of a spanned ZIP file have the same name. + Since each piece is written to a separate volume, no name + collisions occur and each segment can reuse the original + .ZIP file name given to the archive. + + 8.3.2 Sequence ordering for DOS spanned archives uses the DOS + volume label to determine segment numbers. Volume labels + for each segment are written using the form PKBACK#xxx, + where xxx is the segment number written as a decimal + value from 001 - nnn. + + 8.3.3 Split ZIP files are typically written to the same location + and are subject to name collisions if the spanned name + format is used since each segment will reside on the same + drive. To avoid name collisions, split archives are named + as follows. + + Segment 1 = filename.z01 + Segment n-1 = filename.z(n-1) + Segment n = filename.zip + + 8.3.4 The .ZIP extension is used on the last segment to support + quickly reading the central directory. The segment number + n should be a decimal value. + + 8.4 Spanned Self-extracting ZIP Files + + 8.4.1 Spanned ZIP files may be PKSFX Self-extracting ZIP files. + PKSFX files may also be split, however, in this case + the first segment must be named filename.exe. The first + segment of a split PKSFX archive must be large enough to + include the entire executable program. + + 8.5 Capacities and Markers + + 8.5.1 Capacities for split archives are as follows: + + Maximum number of segments = 4,294,967,295 - 1 + Maximum .ZIP segment size = 4,294,967,295 bytes + Minimum segment size = 64K + Maximum PKSFX segment size = 2,147,483,647 bytes + + 8.5.2 Segment sizes may be different however by convention, all + segment sizes should be the same with the exception of the + last, which may be smaller. Local and central directory + header records must never be split across a segment boundary. + When writing a header record, if the number of bytes remaining + within a segment is less than the size of the header record, + end the current segment and write the header at the start + of the next segment. The central directory may span segment + boundaries, but no single record in the central directory + should be split across segments. + + 8.5.3 Spanned/Split archives created using PKZIP for Windows + (V2.50 or greater), PKZIP Command Line (V2.50 or greater), + or PKZIP Explorer will include a special spanning + signature as the first 4 bytes of the first segment of + the archive. This signature (0x08074b50) will be + followed immediately by the local header signature for + the first file in the archive. + + 8.5.4 A special spanning marker may also appear in spanned/split + archives if the spanning or splitting process starts but + only requires one segment. In this case the 0x08074b50 + signature will be replaced with the temporary spanning + marker signature of 0x30304b50. Split archives can + only be uncompressed by other versions of PKZIP that + know how to create a split archive. + + 8.5.5 The signature value 0x08074b50 is also used by some + ZIP implementations as a marker for the Data Descriptor + record. Conflict in this alternate assignment can be + avoided by ensuring the position of the signature + within the ZIP file to determine the use for which it + is intended. + +9.0 Change Process +------------------ + + 9.1 In order for the .ZIP file format to remain a viable technology, this + specification should be considered as open for periodic review and + revision. Although this format was originally designed with a + certain level of extensibility, not all changes in technology + (present or future) were or will be necessarily considered in its + design. + + 9.2 If your application requires new definitions to the + extensible sections in this format, or if you would like to + submit new data structures or new capabilities, please forward + your request to zipformat@pkware.com. All submissions will be + reviewed by the ZIP File Specification Committee for possible + inclusion into future versions of this specification. + + 9.3 Periodic revisions to this specification will be published as + DRAFT or as FINAL status to ensure interoperability. We encourage + comments and feedback that may help improve clarity or content. + + +10.0 Incorporating PKWARE Proprietary Technology into Your Product +------------------------------------------------------------------ + + 10.1 The Use or Implementation in a product of APPNOTE technological + components pertaining to either strong encryption or patching requires + a separate, executed license agreement from PKWARE.

This limits storing +file name characters to only those within the original MS-DOS range of values +and does not properly support file names in other character encodings, or +languages. To address this limitation, this specification will support the +following change. + +D.2 If general purpose bit 11 is unset, the file name and comment should conform +to the original ZIP character encoding. If general purpose bit 11 is set, the +filename and comment must support The Unicode Standard, Version 4.1.0 or +greater using the character encoding form defined by the UTF-8 storage +specification. The Unicode Standard is published by the The Unicode +Consortium (www.unicode.org). UTF-8 encoded data stored within ZIP files +is expected to not include a byte order mark (BOM). + +D.3 Applications may choose to supplement this file name storage through the use +of the 0x0008 Extra Field. Storage for this optional field is currently +undefined, however it will be used to allow storing extended information +on source or target encoding that may further assist applications with file +name, or file content encoding tasks. Please contact PKWARE with any +requirements on how this field should be used. + +D.4 The 0x0008 Extra Field storage may be used with either setting for general +purpose bit 11. Examples of the intended usage for this field is to store +whether "modified-UTF-8" (JAVA) is used, or UTF-8-MAC. Similarly, other +commonly used character encoding (code page) designations can be indicated +through this field. Formalized values for use of the 0x0008 record remain +undefined at this time. The definition for the layout of the 0x0008 field +will be published when available. Use of the 0x0008 Extra Field provides +for storing data within a ZIP file in an encoding other than IBM Code +Page 437 or UTF-8. + +D.5 General purpose bit 11 will not imply any encoding of file content or +password. Values defining character encoding for file content or +password must be stored within the 0x0008 Extended Language Encoding +Extra Field. + +D.6 Ed Gordon of the Info-ZIP group has defined a pair of "extra field" records +that can be used to store UTF-8 file name and file comment fields. These +records can be used for cases when the general purpose bit 11 method +for storing UTF-8 data in the standard file name and comment fields is +not desirable. A common case for this alternate method is if backward +compatibility with older programs is required. + +D.7 Definitions for the record structure of these fields are included above +in the section on 3rd party mappings for "extra field" records. These +records are identified by Header ID's 0x6375 (Info-ZIP Unicode Comment +Extra Field) and 0x7075 (Info-ZIP Unicode Path Extra Field). + +D.8 The choice of which storage method to use when writing a ZIP file is left +to the implementation. Developers should expect that a ZIP file may +contain either method and should provide support for reading data in +either format. Use of general purpose bit 11 reduces storage requirements +for file name data by not requiring additional "extra field" data for +each file, but can result in older ZIP programs not being able to extract +files. Use of the 0x6375 and 0x7075 records will result in a ZIP file +that should always be readable by older ZIP programs, but requires more +storage per file to write file name and/or file comment fields. -- cgit v1.2.3
