Support for Zip:Comment

avolkov-astra opened this issue · comments

The Comment tag is claimed to be supported:

> exiftool -list -Zip:All
Available Zip tags:
  ArchivedFileName Comment CompressedSize Compression ExtraFlags Flags
  ...

But exiftool doesn't show it:

> cd /tmp
> echo "zip archive comment" > 1.txt
> zip --archive-comment 1.zip 1.txt < 1.txt
> zipinfo -z 1.zip
Archive:  1.zip
zip archive comment
...
> exiftool -Zip:Comment 1.zip
> 

P.S. Zip comment is sensitive metadata that can be removed by mat2.

Good point. ExifTool 12.39 will extract the zip file comments.

It showed up in the ZIP list only because it was available for other compressed-file formats (which are also in the ZIP group).

Note: In version 12.39, the comment will appear in the File group, not the ZIP group.
