["Stefan Bodewig (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMPRESS-542?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Stefan Bodewig resolved COMPRESS-542.
-------------------------------------
    Fix Version/s: 1.21
       Resolution: Fixed

And with current master your broken archives will be rejected even earlier as we now hide recovering a certain type of broken archive introduced with COMPRESS-497 behind a new option that is off by default.

I think we can close this as fixed in 1.21 by now.

> We ran into a problem where a 1.43GB corrupt 7z file tried to allocate about 138 million SevenZArchiveEntries which will use about 12GB of memory. Sadly I'm unable to share the file. If you have enough Memory available the following exception is thrown.

> I hacked together the attached patch which will reduce the memory allocation to about 1GB. So lazy instantiation of the entries could be a good solution to the problem. Optimal would be to only create the entries if the headers could be parsed correctly.
