[jira] [Created] (MSHARED-815) Maven Archiver: MavenArchiver.addManifestAttribute does not escape empty lines in value

Konrad Windszus created MSHARED-815:
---------------------------------------

             Summary: Maven Archiver: MavenArchiver.addManifestAttribute does not escape empty lines in value
                 Key: MSHARED-815
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MSHARED-815
             Project: Maven Shared Components
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: maven-archiver
    Affects Versions: maven-archiver-3.4.0
            Reporter: Konrad Windszus


According to https://docs.oracle.com/javase/10/docs/specs/jar/jar.html#name-value-pairs-and-sections
{quote}
Groups of name-value pairs are known as a "section". Sections are separated from other sections by empty lines.
{quote}
Therefore empty lines in attribute values lead to invalid manifests and must somehow be escaped.
As this is not done by default in {{java.util.jar.Attributes.writeMain(...)}} the method {{MavenArchiver.addManifestAttribute(...}} should either throw an exception in case of empty lines given to parameter {{value}} or escape those empty lines somehow (https://github.com/apache/maven-archiver/blob/d454ab3fcd147c0201a14f298cc8f9e1a25ba03e/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/archiver/MavenArchiver.java#L221)
