Any ideas how to reliably detect if they are password protected
Office files and deal with them appropriately?
:) Funny you should ask! We do this in CanIt.
There's a program called "lsar" that can print out all kinds of useful info
about all kinds of archive formats, including MS Office files. Some encrypted
office files contain a subfile called "EncryptionInfo" while for others,
"lsar" issues an "XADIsEncrypted" attribute.
So you can key off those.
On Debian, "lsar" is part of the "unar" package.
We are on similar pages there.
lsar does indeed identify it correctly.
It was really my mistake thinking that all office xml (docx, xlsx, etc)
were zip files.
It appears encrypted ones are not!
