I'm a little bit puzzled that this bug is closed as "not a bug" despite the fact that all versions of python allow the user to create "invalid" ZIP files and all version up to 3.7 are able to read those "invalid" files.

Currently we're stuck with a lot of already created ZIP files that cannot be read or fixed after an update to 3.7.

Would it be an option to make decoding of extra data optional eg. with an extra keyword arg to __init__?
