You are correct that this hack
is not a security risk as most forums will allow the uploading of .zip files.
I think that OK was saying was that .zip files in general can be a security risk. Just as when you get a virus e-mail with a .zip file in it and the recipient thinks, "what is in the .zip file". They open it and hey presto a virus leaps out at them.
