## What is the purpose of the change The built-in deflate codec is inflated in chunks and bounded before the full output is materialized, and `DataFileReader` additionally checks the decompressed size of every codec's output as a safeguard. Exceeding the limit throws `AvroRuntimeException`. When reading a data file, each block is decompressed according to the file's codec. A block with a very high compression ratio (or a malformed block) could expand to far more memory than its compressed size (a decompression bomb). This enforces a configurable maximum decompressed size while reading each block, mirroring the Java SDK's decompression limit (AVRO-4247). The limit defaults to 200 MiB and can be overridden with the `AVRO_MAX_DECOMPRESS_LENGTH` environment variable. This is part of the umbrella issue AVRO-4283. ## Verifying this change This change added tests and can be verified as follows: - Added tests in `test/File/FileTests.cs`: a deflate block exceeding the limit is rejected and a within-limit block decodes. - Run: `cd lang/csharp && dotnet test src/apache/test/Avro.test.csproj` ## Documentation - Does this pull request introduce a new feature? (no — hardening/robustness) - If yes, how is the feature documented? (not applicable; the new `AVRO_MAX_DECOMPRESS_LENGTH` environment variable is documented in code comments) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
