try on your machine
The command "zip2john" is used to extract the hash from a password-protected ZIP file. Here's a breakdown of the command:
- "zip2john" is the main command used to execute the "zip2john" utility.
- "-o" is an option that specifies the output file where the extracted hash will be saved.
- "${path-to-compressed_file}" is a placeholder for the actual path to the ZIP file you want to extract the hash from.
- "${filename-zip}" is a placeholder for the name of the ZIP file.
To use this command, you need to replace "${path-to-compressed_file}" with the actual path to the ZIP file you're interested in and "${filename-zip}" with the name of the ZIP file. The extracted hash will be saved in the specified output file.
