--------------------------------------
I have experienced this issue as well. The stack trace looks identical to the
one in the description. This is with Tika 1.6.
> OutOfMemoryException in ZipContainerDetector
> --------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TIKA-1631
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1631
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: detector
> Affects Versions: 1.8
> Reporter: Pavel Micka
>
> When I try to detect ZIP container I rarely get this exception. It is caused
> by the fact that the file looks like ZIP container (magics), but in fact its
> random noise. So Apache decompress tries to find the size of tables (expects
> correct stream), loads coincidentally huge number (as on the given place
> there can be anything in the stream) and tries to allocate array of several
> GB in size (hence the exception).
> This bug negatively influences stability of systems running Tika, as the
> decompressor can accidentally allocate as much memory as is available and
> other parts of the system then might not be able to allocate their objects.
> A solution might be to add additional parameter to Tika config that would
> limit size of these arrays. If the size would be bigger, it would throw
> exception. This change should not be hard, as method
> InternalLZWInputStream.initializeTables() is protected.
> Exception in thread "pool-2-thread-2" java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap
