Description
Steps to reproduce
- Create a AES encrypted zip using ZipOutputStream, probably also using ZipFile
Expected behavior
A Zip according to the specification is created
https://www.winzip.com/win/en/aes_info.html#comp-method
The specication states that:
- AE-1: The version supports CRC, The CRC must be set to the actual CRC of the content
- AE-2: This version does not support CRC, CRC value must be 0
The reason behind not using CRC in case of AE-2 is that this is an unnecessary redundant overhead. AES has an Auth code which is even better than a simple CRC. Therefore the computation time for the CRC can be removed to improve perfromance.
Actual behavior
A AE-2 zip is created that has the CRC value set to the actual value
To match the specification:
-> Either change the version to AE-1
-> Or set the CRC to 0
In order to fix this issue it first needs to be decided which version the zip files shall use:
AE-1 or AE-2
