> Using TarArchiveInputStream to parse this tar archive results in a
> `java.io.IOException: Error detected parsing the header`
> `Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Invalid byte 78 at offset 8 in '00000000NaN\{NUL}' len=12`
>  
> The `00000000NaN\{NUL}` value is indeed found in the tar archive at the point that TarArchiveInputStream finds it and errors, but both BSDTar from a bash shell and JTar from a Java environment handle the archive fine, including the file with the malformed header. My commons-compress code is: 
> {code:java}
> private static List<File> unTar(final File inputFile, final File outputDir) throws FileNotFoundException, IOException, ArchiveException {
>   System.out.println(String.format("Untaring %s to dir %s.", inputFile.getAbsolutePath(), outputDir.getAbsolutePath()));
>   final List<File> untaredFiles = new LinkedList<File>();
>   final InputStream is = new FileInputStream(inputFile);
>   final TarArchiveInputStream debInputStream = (TarArchiveInputStream) new ArchiveStreamFactory().createArchiveInputStream("tar", is);
>   TarArchiveEntry entry = null;
>     while ((entry = (TarArchiveEntry) debInputStream.getNextEntry()) != null) {
>       final File outputFile = new File(outputDir, entry.getName());
>       if (entry.isDirectory()) {
>         System.out.println(String.format("Attempting to write output directory %s.", outputFile.getAbsolutePath()));
>         if (!outputFile.exists()) {
>           System.out
>               .println(String.format("Attempting to create output directory %s.", outputFile.getAbsolutePath()));
>           if (!outputFile.mkdirs()) {
>             throw new IllegalStateException(
>                 String.format("Couldn't create directory %s.", outputFile.getAbsolutePath()));
>           }
>         }
>       }
>       else {
>         System.out.println(String.format("Creating output file %s.", outputFile.getAbsolutePath()));
>         final OutputStream outputFileStream = new FileOutputStream(outputFile);
>         IOUtils.copy(debInputStream, outputFileStream);
>         outputFileStream.close();
>       }
>       untaredFiles.add(outputFile);
>     }
>   debInputStream.close();
>   return untaredFiles;
> }
> {code}

> I've attached an archive of my proof-of-concept code that un-archives the problem archive using JTar, then attempts to un-archive it using commons-compress. The problem archive is included. Unfortunately I wasn't involved in the creation of the problem archive, it was taken downloaded from NPM last year, so I don't have any details about the archival process that caused the malformed header.
