Thanks for an awesome an interesting bug report ZAK Magnus!  I've created a JUnit test that triggers the bug in a different way.

> When encoding a sizable stream byte by byte (so, just calling Base64InputStream.read()), after 10920 successful read()s, this happens: 
> java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 2
>         at org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Base64.encode(Base64.java:502)
>         at org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Base64InputStream.read(Base64InputStream.java:157)
>         at org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Base64InputStream.read(Base64InputStream.java:109)
> Based on this, the necessary conditions seem to be that buffer = null and modulus = 2. Then, if a read() is done, a single-byte buffer is used, whose length is doubled by resizeBuffer(), but that still doesn't make it big enough to hold the 4 bytes written to it because modulus was just incremented to 0. 
> Here's some sample code:
> import org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Base64InputStream;
> public class TestReads {
>     public static void main(String[] args) {
>         Base64InputStream b64stream = new Base64InputStream(System.in, true, 0, null);
>         int n = 0;
>         try {
>             while (b64stream.read() != -1) n++;
>         } catch (Exception x) {
>             System.out.println(n);
>             x.printStackTrace();
>         }
>     }
> }
