[jira] [Commented] (TIKA-2446) Tainted Zip file can provoke OOM errors

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-2446?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16502296#comment-16502296 ] 

Robin Schimpf commented on TIKA-2446:
-------------------------------------

I also see this error from time to time with Tika 1.15. This is a regression from the changes made in TIKA-2311. [~tallison@apache.org] since you made the changes for the truncated zips can you provide any help or information? I tried to fix the issue but always broke some existing tests.

This might also be forwarded to the POI project. Maybe they can provide a fix in their code.

> Hi,
> using Tika 1.16 with embedded POI 3.17-beta1 we experienced an OutOfMemory error on a Zip file. The suspicious code is in the constructor of FakeZipEntry in line 125. Here a ByteArrayOutputStream of up to 2 GiB in size is opened which will most probably lead to an OutOfMemory. The entry size in the zip file can be easily faked by an attacker.
> The code path to FakeZipEntry will be used only if the native java.util.zip.ZipFile implementation already failed to open the (possibly corrupted) Zip. Possibly a more fine grained error analysis could be done in ZipPackage.
> I have attached a tweaked zip file that will provoke this error.
> {code:java}
> public FakeZipEntry(ZipEntry entry, InputStream inp) throws IOException {
> 			super(entry.getName());
> 			
> 			// Grab the de-compressed contents for later
>             ByteArrayOutputStream baos;
>             long entrySize = entry.getSize();
>             if (entrySize !=-1) {
>                 if (entrySize>=Integer.MAX_VALUE) {
>                     throw new IOException("ZIP entry size is too large");
>                 }
>                 baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream((int) entrySize);
>             } else {
>     			baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
>             }
> {code}
> Kinds,
> Thorsten
