Read Standard Zip Encryption 2.0 encrypted Zips 100x faster with same interface as the CPython standard library's zipfile.ZipFile.

pip install fastzipfile

You just need to import fastzipfile and that's it. It patches zipfile with a fast decrypter.

import fastzipfile
import zipfile

with zipfile.ZipFile('path-to-file.zip', mode='r') as fz:
    f = fz.open('path-to-file-in-zip', pwd=b'password')
    content = f.read()

Currently, it only supports what zipfile.ZipFile supports, e.g., no AES-128 or AES-256 support.
