🗜️ ZipCrypto's known-plaintext attack bypasses passwords entirely, can you extract what's inside without cracking?

You don't always need the password. ZipCrypto leaks enough structure for a known-plaintext attack that skips cracking altogether. You'll run zip2john, distinguish ZipCrypto from AES-256, and pick the fastest route into locked archives. 🗝️
