> This is related to KAFKA-273 and is filed to improve the code to have more defensive checks against corrupted data. The data could get corrupted either due to a Kafka bug or due to bit flipping on the network. The message iterator should check if the message is valid before trying to decompress it. On the producer side, defensive checks can be turned on to verify the messages before writing those to the socket.
