Challenge Question

This uploaded report bundle looks like an ordinary zip archive, but at least one entry inside it isn't named the way a normal file should be. Archive tools that don't sanity-check entry paths can be tricked into writing files well outside the folder they were told to extract into. Work out where this archive's contents were really meant to land.
