So, at my work, we host both SFTP and FTP to receive data feeds.

Has anyone seen an FTP honeypot that would serve zip bombs to malicious users and allow legit users proper access?

Cowrie [0] provides an SFTP and Telnet honeypot and you can configure the filesystem to serve your desired files. Not quite a passthrough for legitimate use, unfortunately

I always worry that if I do something like this it'll cause the malicious person to spend extra effort and attention on a real attack.

Because that's what I'd do if I hit a honeypot...

Fair point.

I've always imagined the risk of someone doing that on purpose to something they then post on /r/opendirectories

Most of those people seem to grab and open those files without any security measures, docx, pdf, archives, often .exe
