There is c-code which is, when compiled with gcc and special arguments, results in a 4 GB Binary.

@stop Well there is compiling in debug. I compiled a game engine that normally is <50MB. When compiled with debug on it was like 1GB.

@Kimmax No, that was the result of a CI pipeline. That wasn't a zip bomb, it was corrupted. Can't provide further details without breaking an NDA

@kescherRant Well its just 19 bytes. That means it could be brute force recreated? 0 to 255 for each byte. Keep trying until zip sees it as a valid zip. That might take a while...

@Demolishun It showed up as LZMA with broken parameters in 7-Zip. I don't think it can be recreated in a valid way. Not even a valid .jar in the first place.

@Demolishun Or just read the format specs. It's easy to make. RLE is like trivial.
