I can't reproduce it: [6:46pm] 109>./file -m ../magic/magic.mgc error_sample.zip error_sample.zip: Zip archive data, at least v2.0 to extract [6:46pm] 110>./file -v file-5.39 magic file from /usr/local/share/misc/magic [6:49pm] 115>/usr/bin/file -v file-5.38 magic file from /etc/magic:/usr/share/misc/magic [6:49pm] 116>/usr/bin/file error_sample.zip error_sample.zip: Zip archive data, at least v2.0 to extract [6:49pm] 117>uname -a Linux uranus 5.4.0-56-generic 0000062-Ubuntu SMP Mon Nov 23 19:20:19 UTC 2020 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux |

Umm, sorry, please do not use the ZIP itself, but its extracted contents – I didn't want to post an executable as plain file. I.e. something like: albrecht@deneb:/tmp$ unzip file-error-sample.zip Archive: file-error-sample.zip inflating: file-error-sample albrecht@deneb:/tmp$ file file-error-sample file-error-sample: ERROR: error reading (Invalid argument) |
