> Project: Commons Sanselan
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Jacobo Tarrio
> Fix For: 1.0

> Investigating a query of death, I found an image that had an EXIF tag that specified start=1342195485 and length=974913536.
> When ByteSourceArray.getBlock(start,length) was called, it passed the test "if (start + length > bytes.length)", as start+length is a negative number. This caused the server to try to allocate a buffer 950 MB big and then save it in "bytes" starting at position 1.3G. This produces either a heap space exhaustion or an array out of bounds error.
> The fix would consist of replacing the condition with one like the following:
> if (start < 0 || length < 0 || start + length < 0 || start + length > bytes.length)
