Looking at src/archive/zip/reader.go from the Go 1.10 kit, I see that readDirectory() gets the modified time from the first 32 bits after an infoZipUnixExtraID's length field:

    case infoZipUnixExtraID:
        if len(fieldBuf) < 4 {
            continue parseExtras
        }
        ts := int64(fieldBuf.uint32()) // ModTime since Unix epoch
        modified = time.Unix(ts, 0)

But according to file unzip60/proginfo/extrafld.txt from
https://sourceforge.net/projects/infozip/files/UnZip%206.x%20%28latest%29/UnZip%206.0/unzip60.tar.gz/download, the layout of an infoZipUnixExtraID extra is:

    0x5855  Short   tag for this extra block type ("UX")
    TSize   Short   total data size for this block
    AcTime  Long    time of last access (GMT/UTC)
    ModTime Long    time of last modification (GMT/UTC)

so the current code gets the last access time, not the last modification time.

In fact, the ModTime field in an infoZipUnixExtraID (0x5855) extra header has the same offset and size at
the ModTime field in an unixExtraID (0x000d) block, so both cases can use the same code:
zip-bug.patch.gz

This is (probably) not an important bug, because the infoZipUnixExtraID (0x5855) block has long been deprecated in favor of extTimeExtraID (0x5455) and the Unix type 2 extra block (0x7855).

You say that, but the default ZIP archiver on OSX (at least on Sierra) continues to generate that field...

Fix is out. Moving to 1.10.1 milestone for consideration in the point release. The new time-parsing logic was added in Go1.10, and it would be unfortunate to continue reporting the wrong timestamp.

[release-branch.go1.10] archive/zip: fix handling of Info-ZIP Unix ex…
176900a 
…tended timestamps

The Info-ZIP Unix1 extra field is specified as such:
>>>
Value    Size   Description
-----    ----   -----------
0x5855   Short  tag for this extra block type ("UX")
TSize    Short  total data size for this block
AcTime   Long   time of last access (GMT/UTC)
ModTime  Long   time of last modification (GMT/UTC)
<<<

The previous handling was incorrect in that it read the AcTime field
instead of the ModTime field.

The test-osx.zip test unfortunately locked in the wrong behavior.
Manually parsing that ZIP file shows that the encoded MS-DOS
date and time are 0x4b5f and 0xa97d, which corresponds with a
date of 2017-10-31 21:11:58, which matches the correct mod time
(off by 1 second due to MS-DOS timestamp resolution).

Fixes #23901
