AES Support

SD-1649, originally created on 2/22/2010 08:18:51 by David Pierson

Add 128 and 256 bit AES support compatible with WinZip's implementation.

Comment from David Pierson on 2/22/2010 08:21:57: Mostly implemented. Creation via Zipfile and ZipOutputStream, and extraction via ZipFile is now handled (r499). Extraction via ZipInputStream is not implemented. FastZip is not implemented.

Progress:

• Archive creation:
  • Key sizes:
    • [x] 128 bit
    • [ ] 192 bit¹
    • [x] 256 bit
  • API support:
    • [ ] Zipfile
    • [x] ZipOutputStream
• Archive extraction:
  • Key sizes:
    • [x] 128 bit
    • [ ] 192 bit¹
    • [x] 256 bit
  • API support:
    • [x] Zipfile (Should be working?)
    • [ ] ZipInputStream - PR WIP #381
    • [x] FastZip

¹ Creation of archives with 192-bit key is not supported in any of the leading archiving applications (WinRAR, WinZip, 7-zip, info-zip, Keka).

Are there plans to implement AES support for ZipInputStream? Is there an issue or a PR for it? What's the problem with it?

Theres a partial implementation in #381, though i hit an issue with auth key handling that I wasn't sure how to fix simply and haven't had chance to look at it recently

Yes, the "problem" is that ZipInputStream works very differently to ZipFile, so it has to be implemented in another (more complex) way.

fwiw, I started looking at adding the encryption side pieces to ZipFile ages back and shelved it because I had no time, but i'm looking to get more of that done (#440 is a subset of the required change and tests anyway)

WIP for creating AES encrypted files with ZipFile in #443

The issue with the auth key is solved in #551
