Supported vs. Enabled

From the perspective of an attacker, if a software supports MOTW propagation, but it is not enabled by default, then its users are vulnerable (as noone changes the settings really). E.g. one can assume that 7zip does not propagate MOTW, even tho it supports it.

Id recommend to have two rows:

  • MOTW propagation supported: Y/N
  • MOTW propagation by default: Y/N

WinRAR and MOTW

According to Eugene Roshal (WinRAR's author), WinRAR sets MOTW for Office formats, but not other types, because it was causing problems with some installers:

Hello,

It is intentional. Beginning from WinRAR 5.20 we set it only
for MS Office file formats.

Some installers failed to work properly after assigning this stream
and it hurt WinRAR reputation rather badly. For example, search for
"Download 7Zip (I previously had winrar)" here:

Eugene

It appears that at least WinRAR 6.11 doesn't propagate
mark-of-the-web (zone.identifier NTFS stream) when extracting files
from archives downloaded from the internet. Is this intentional?
IIRC, older versions did propagate MOTW.
