What is a .zip file?

ZIP is a widely supported archive format that bundles multiple files and directories into one container, typically with per-file DEFLATE compression and a central directory index. It supports random access to individual entries without decompressing the whole archive. It underlies many document formats such as DOCX and EPUB.

How to use this file

Use an example ZIP to test archive extraction, central-directory parsing, per-entry decompression, and protection against path-traversal (zip-slip) during unpacking.
