There is https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/XDS/ which is used by file-roller and friends, but a specification designed for archivers would be much better.https://invent.kde.org/utilities/ark/-/issues/2Add tests for path traversal attack2021-01-05T21:06:12ZElvis AngelaccioAdd tests for path traversal attack
