There should be API allowing to check if an archive is protected.

Reading a password protected archive by passing a wrong password doesn't notify the user that the password is wrong. Accessing one of the entries in the archive throws a generic "Invalid data" exception.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a zip file with password.
2. Open the same archive with the API passing wrong password and then try to one of the entries.
Observed: InvalidDataException is thrown when trying to read one of the entries in the archive.
Expected: The exception should be more meaningful and if possible occur when reading the archive. There should be API allowing to check if the password is correct.

Although it is mandatory according to the specification, It seems like other applications don't require this record. Trying to open such an archive with RadZipLibrary currently throws InvalidDataException. 7zip creates such files.

Currently, an exception is thrown when the file being unzipped already exists in the destination folder. Expose overload of the ExtractToDirectory() method allowing users to overwrite files.

Alternatively, the ZipArchiveEntry.ExtractToFile() method can be used:

using (ZipArchive source = ZipFile.Open(sourceFileName, ZipArchiveMode.Read, null))
{
    foreach (ZipArchiveEntry entry in source.Entries)
    {
        string fullPath = Path.GetFullPath(Path.Combine(destinationDirectory, entry.FullName));

        if (Path.GetFileName(fullPath).Length != 0)
        {
            Directory.CreateDirectory(Path.GetDirectoryName(fullPath));
            // The boolean parameter determines whether an existing file that has the same name as the destination file should be overwritten
            entry.ExtractToFile(fullPath, true);
        }
    }
}

Release 2024.1.305 (2024 Q1)

The stream that is internally created by the CreateFromDirectory method remains opened and the user can't close it:

This is error message observed when using the below code snippet:

The process cannot access the file 'C:\Users\dyordano\OneDrive - Progress Software Corporation\MyProjects\1640071ZipFileCreateFromDirectory\myzip.zip' because it is being used by another process.

        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            string archiveFileName = @"..\..\myzip.zip";
            string sourceDirectoryName = @"..\..\Folder";
            File.Delete(archiveFileName);
            Telerik.Windows.Zip.Extensions.ZipFile.CreateFromDirectory(sourceDirectoryName, archiveFileName, Telerik.Windows.Zip.CompressionLevel.Optimal, true);

            using (Stream stream = File.Open(archiveFileName, FileMode.Open))
            {

            }
        }

Workaround: 

        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            string archiveFileName = @"..\..\myzip.zip";
            string sourceDirectoryName = @"..\..\Folder";
            File.Delete(archiveFileName);

          //  Telerik.Windows.Zip.Extensions.ZipFile.CreateFromDirectory(sourceDirectoryName, archiveFileName, Telerik.Windows.Zip.CompressionLevel.Optimal, true);
            CreateFromDirectory(sourceDirectoryName, archiveFileName, Telerik.Windows.Zip.CompressionLevel.Optimal, true);

            using (Stream stream = File.Open(archiveFileName, FileMode.Open))
            {

            }
        }

        private static void CreateFromDirectory(string sourceDirectoryName, string destinationArchiveFileName, Telerik.Windows.Zip.CompressionLevel compressionLevel, bool includeBaseDirectory)
        {
            Encoding entryNameEncoding = null;
            DeflateSettings compressionSettings = new DeflateSettings()
            {
                CompressionLevel = compressionLevel,
                HeaderType = CompressedStreamHeader.None

            {
                bool empty = true;

                DirectoryInfo directoryInfo = new DirectoryInfo(sourceDirectoryName);
                string fullName = directoryInfo.FullName;
                if (includeBaseDirectory && directoryInfo.Parent != null)
                {
                    fullName = directoryInfo.Parent.FullName;
                }

                foreach (FileSystemInfo fileSystemInfo in directoryInfo.EnumerateFileSystemInfos("*", SearchOption.AllDirectories))
                {
                    empty = false;

                    int length = fileSystemInfo.FullName.Length - fullName.Length;
                    string entryName = fileSystemInfo.FullName.Substring(fullName.Length, length);
                    entryName = entryName.TrimStart(directorySeparatorChar);

                    DirectoryInfo subfolder = fileSystemInfo as DirectoryInfo;
                    if (subfolder != null)
                    {
                        if (IsDirectoryEmpty(subfolder))
                        {
                            zipArchive.CreateEntry(string.Concat(entryName, Path.DirectorySeparatorChar));
                        }
                    }
                    else
                    {
                        ZipFile.CreateEntryFromFile(zipArchive, fileSystemInfo.FullName, entryName, compressionSettings);
                    }
                }

                if (includeBaseDirectory && empty)
                {
                    zipArchive.CreateEntry(string.Concat(directoryInfo.Name, Path.DirectorySeparatorChar));
                }
            }
        }
        private static bool IsDirectoryEmpty(DirectoryInfo directoryInfo)
        {
            bool empty = true;

            using (IEnumerator<FileSystemInfo> enumerator = directoryInfo.EnumerateFileSystemInfos("*", SearchOption.AllDirectories).GetEnumerator())
            {
                if (enumerator.MoveNext())
                {
                    empty = false;
                }
            }

            return empty;
        }

Note: We should ensure that all of the obsolete API that used to use the "leave open" flag don't keep the stream locked.

When extracting zip archives that contain empty folders with 7zip an error message occurs: "Headers Error"

Last Updated: 15 May 2024 06:27 by ADMIN
Release 2024.2.426 (2024 Q2)

The attached gif file illustrates the inability to open the newly added file with the password: 

Sub Main()
	Dim sZipFilePath As String = "..\..\test.zip"
	File.Delete(sZipFilePath)

	CreateArchive(sZipFilePath)
	Dim decryptionSettings As DecryptionSettings = EncryptionSettings.CreateDecryptionSettings()
	AddHandler decryptionSettings.PasswordRequired, AddressOf DecryptionSettings_PasswordRequired
	Dim compressionSettings As CompressionSettings = Nothing
	Dim encoding As Encoding = Nothing
	Using oFS As FileStream = File.Open(sZipFilePath, FileMode.OpenOrCreate)


		Using oArchive As ZipArchive = ZipArchive.Update(oFS, encoding, compressionSettings, decryptionSettings)
			Using entry As ZipArchiveEntry = oArchive.CreateEntry("newText.txt")
				Dim writer As StreamWriter = New StreamWriter(entry.Open())
				writer.WriteLine("Hello world!")
				writer.Flush()
			End Using
		End Using
	End Using
End Sub

Private Sub CreateArchive(sZipFilePath As String)
	Using stream As Stream = File.Open(sZipFilePath, FileMode.Create)
		Dim _encryptionSettings As PasswordEncryptionSettings = EncryptionSettings.CreatePkzipPasswordEncryptionSettings()
		_encryptionSettings.Password = "telerik"
		Dim compressionSettings As CompressionSettings = Nothing
		Dim encoding As Encoding = Nothing

		Using archive As ZipArchive = ZipArchive.Create(stream, encoding, compressionSettings, _encryptionSettings)

			Using entry As ZipArchiveEntry = archive.CreateEntry("text.txt")
				Dim writer As StreamWriter = New StreamWriter(entry.Open())
				writer.WriteLine("Hello world!")
				writer.Flush()
			End Using
		End Using
	End Using
End Sub

Private Sub DecryptionSettings_PasswordRequired(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As PasswordRequiredEventArgs)
	e.Password = "telerik"
End Sub

 

Workaround: Until this bug is fixed the obsolete API could be used instead: 

ZipArchive archive = new ZipArchive(stream, ZipArchiveMode.Create, true, encoding, compressionSettings, encryptionSettings)
and
ZipArchive oArchive = new ZipArchive(stream, ZipArchiveMode.Update, true, encoding, compressionSettings, decryptionSettings)

Provide a simple method to detect that a password for a ZIP file is not valid.

The current implemention usually throws an exception (which does not definitively identify the password as wrong), but not always. Sometimes it just returns corrupt data.

It would be nice to  either have a typed exception consistently thrown, or a method to specifically check for an invalid password.

Thanks.
