Actually the file src/test/resources/COMPRESS-178.tar is one with embedded NULs in a numeric field. This is what GNU tar says $ tar tvf COMPRESS-178.tar tar: This does not look like a tar archive tar: Skipping to next header -rw-r--r-- tcurdt/tcurdt 82 2007-11-14 11:19 test2.xml tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors It is a bit more forgiving that Compress as it processes the remainder of the archive, but doesn't accept the "broken" header either.
