Hello,

I'm not aware of any security issues with the PHP Zip extension itself. The security discussion would likely relate more-so the inclusion of malicious files in the zip archives that a PHP script would read. That said, we do provide a list of system administration service companies if you'd like specific security-related advice:

System Administration Services | cPanel Forums

Thanks!
