     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1154?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Andrew Jackson updated TIKA-1154:
---------------------------------

    Attachment: tika-breaker.html

This file makes tika hang. If you remove both of the binary characters (0x02 0x00), then it starts working again.

> We are using Tika on large web archives, which also happen to contain some malformed files. In particular, we found a HTML file with binary characters in the DOCTYPE declaration. This hangs Tika, either embedded or from the command line, during format detection.
> An example file is attached.
