[issue6972] zipfile.ZipFile overwrites files outside destination path

Amaury Forgeot d'Arc added the comment: The patch won't work if the target file already exists as a symlink. I think that such a check is not a good idea. Using symlinks to extract files to somewhere else may be a feature, after all. Specially if the symlink already exists before the operati

[issue6972] zipfile.ZipFile overwrites files outside destination path

Thomas W. Barr added the comment: A fair point. I was thinking that we could query the OS about whatever filesystem the path is on, but this wouldn't work for a file that hasn't been created yet. The issue with extractall() isn't just that it can extract over existing files, it's that it can wr

Ned Deily added the comment: Yes, as shipped from the factory, the default "root" file system is still case-insensitive but the user can change that. There there are file systems on attached disk images and NFS-mounted file systems, etc etc. More to the point, it's not a system attribute, r

Thomas W. Barr added the comment: Good point, I'd forgotten that case-sensitive file systems are an option. I do know that it's not the default, though, and that as shipped from Apple, at least the consumer machines are case-insensitive. Things may be different in server-land. For what it's wor

[issue6972] zipfile.ZipFile overwrites files outside destination path

Ned Deily added the comment: "The Mac version of os.path.normpath doesn't change the path, as per the posix version, which isn't correct on HFS+, which is not case sensitive." Not so. Case-sensitive vs case-insensitive behavior is chosen when initializing an HFS+ file system (since OS X 10.3).
