Did you end up discovering the original password to the zip file? (was it, as I'd hope, `TIMBOBIMBO` ?)

  No, I did not. I threw quite a lot of compute power at it using bkcrack (CPU) and hashcat (GPU) but never found out what it was. It was definitely not TIMBOBIMBO, sadly! I also ended up sponsoring the bkcrack project because the maintainer added a new option for me: https://github.com/kimci86/bkcrack/pull/126 https://github.com/kimci86/bkcrack/pull/126

    How much was "quite a lot"?

      I did a pass with bkcrack. The password is over 13 char. bkcrack.exe -k 98e0f009 48a0b11a c70f8499 -r 1..18 ?p bkcrack 1.7.0 - 2024-05-26 [11:07:33] Recovering password length 0-6... length 7... length 8... length 9... length 10... length 11... length 12... length 13...

        I can tell you it's over 14 ?p, and over 16 ?u?d, and over 17 ?u.

          where's the original encrypted zip for this?
          • jgrahamc 2y ago
            If you want to try to crack the password you don't need the ZIP file. Just the key (which you can see in the bkcrack command above).
