ZipExec is a Go-based proof-of-concept tool that wraps binaries into a password-protected zip file, base64 encodes it into a JScript loader, and executes it via Windows COM objects without unzipping. The password protection evades EDRs and disk-based anti-malware scanning.

Use cases

• execute binaries from a password protected zip
• evade EDR detection when running tools
• generate a JScript loader for a payload binary
• red team tool execution on Windows
• bypass anti-malware disk scanning
• wrap offensive security tools for stealthy execution

When to choose

• you need to execute binaries on Windows while evading EDR and anti-malware scanning
• you are doing red team or penetration testing and need defense-evasion techniques
• you want a JScript-based loader generated automatically from a binary

When to avoid

• you need a general-purpose zip utility
• you are not targeting Windows
• you need a maintained tool with recent updates and broad platform support
