Pat Hickey updated PDFBOX-3592:
-------------------------------
Description:
When the pdf document contains a startref and xref table (a la PDF1.4) as well
as an /XRefStm, but the offset given by /XRefStm does not describe a xref
(stream or otherwise), PDFBox does its level best to find the xref info using a
brute force search. In the case where the document only contains the xref table
given by startxref, and does not contain an object of /Type /XRef, the brute
force search results in the xref table.
See diffs for COSParser.java(2.0.0) and NonSequentialPDFParser.java (1.8.9),
below.
