Here is my task:




Sample Alien Zip file found at /tmp/alien-zip-2092.zip is password protected
We have worked out they are using three digit code
Brute force the Zip file to extract to /tmp




My code so far:



from zipfile import ZipFile

for i in range(0,999):
with ZipFile('/tmp/alien-zip-2092.zip') as zf:
zf.extractall(pwd = i)


How do I break out of the loop after the password and extraction is successful.

Entering a wrong password raises a ValueError (documentation)



So you can put the unzip in a try block, pass over the exception if the password is bad, and break out of the loop when extraction was successful.



 from zipfile import ZipFile

zf = ZipFile('/tmp/alien-zip-2092.zip')

for i in range(0,999):
try:
zf.extractall(pwd = str(i).encode())
print("Password: " + str(i))
break
except Exception:
pass


I tested this code, note that the password has to be encoded as a byte string.

If you print out the exception it reads:




Bad password for file [and some file info]

  • check right above in the same documentation. Instead of extractall(), you can use extract() to provide a filename to extract just that file: zf.extract(member='file.txt', pwd = str(i).encode())
