[jira] [Resolved] (TIKA-932) Upgrade to Commons Compress 1.4.1

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-932?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Jukka Zitting resolved TIKA-932.
--------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

Done in revisions 1355521 and 1355562.

In addition to simply upgrading the dependency I also modified the relevant parser and detector code to take advantage of some of the new features (autodetection, new supported formats, etc.) in Commons Compress 1.4.1.

> There's a denial of service vulnerability (CVE-2012-2098) in Commons Compress versions up to 1.4 (we currently use 1.3) that can be triggered with a specially crafted bzip2 document.
> Tika already has higher-level features (ForkParser, etc.) for dealing with problems like this, but it would in any case be good to upgrade our Commons Compress dependency to the new 1.4.1 release that fixes the vulnerability.
