No its a bug in your feed.
CDATA is "not parsed" in the sense that characters that otherwise
would be recognized as mark-up are ignored - it's not a carte blanche
to add binary junk/"illegal characters" to XML.
Try passing something like this instead (wrapped in an InputSource) to
the SAXParser#parse method.
class StripReader extends Reader {
private final Reader mReader;
public StripReader(Reader reader) {
mReader = reader;
}
@Override
public boolean markSupported() {
return false;
}
@Override
public void close() throws IOException {
mReader.close();
}
@Override
public int read(char[] cbuf, int off, int len) throws
IOException {
int n = 0;
int ch = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < len; i++) {
ch = read();
if (ch != -1) {
cbuf[off + n++] = (char) ch;
}
}
return (n == 0 && ch == -1) ? -1 : n;
}
@Override
public int read() throws IOException {
int ch;
do {
ch = mReader.read();
} while (ch != -1 && !validChar(ch));
return ch;
}
private boolean validChar(int ch) {
// Char ::= #x9 | #xA | #xD | [#x20-#xD7FF] |
[#xE000-#xFFFD] |
[#x10000-#x10FFFF]
/* any Unicode character, excluding the surrogate blocks, FFFE, and
FFFF. */
return ch == 0x9 || ch == 0xA || ch == 0xD || (ch >=
0x20 && ch <=
0xD7FF) || (ch>=0x10000 && ch <=0x10FFFF);
}
}
