A new phishing technique called file archiver in the browser can be leveraged to emimam a file archiver software in a web browser when a victim visits a .zip domain.
When a user clicks on this file, it will initiate the download of a .exe or any other file.
On top of that, the search bar in the Windows File Explorer can emerge as a sneaky conduit where searching for a non-existent .ZIP file opens it directly in the web browser should the file name correspond to a legitimate .zip directory.
This is perfect for this scenario since the user would be expecting to see a ZIP file.
Once the user performs this action, it auto-launch the .zip domains which has the file archive template, appearing pretty legitimate
