Summary: Bad Section Length - Section.java
Product: POI
Version: 3.5-dev
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Keywords: PatchAvailable
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: HSSF
AssignedTo: [email protected]

I've seen a rather odd issue with a spreadsheet that results in the size of the
section length being miscalculated. The following:
/*
* Read the section length.
*/
size = (int) LittleEndian.getUInt(src, o1);
returns a negative number that causes an OutOfMemory error. It appears to be a
valid Excel document (it opens fine in OpenOffice). My fix for the timebeing
is to throw the following immediately after
if (size < 0) {
throw new UnsupportedEncodingException("Tried to allocate a section of size
" + size);
}
The document appears to parse fine after that. Please let me know if you need
any more info, I might well be able to clean up the data in the original
document, but saving in OpenOffice might actually correct the issue.
