getting Java Heap Space

Question

Hi
I'm getting Java Heap Space when trying to put server's private(!) key as public one
The test came out accidentally when one of the testers took out the private key instead of public.
I know, we are not supposed to use private keys, but still, some validation exception will be nicer than JHS :)

            SSHFTPClient sftpClient = new SSHFTPClient();
            sftpClient.setRemoteHost(host);
            sftpClient.setAuthentication(userName, ePassword);
            String pKey = args[0] + " " + args[1];
            
               ByteArrayInputStream str = new ByteArrayInputStream(pKey.getBytes());
                try
                {
                    System.out.println("Validating sever public key.");
                    sftpClient.getValidator().addKnownHost(host, str);
                }
                catch(Exception e)
                {
                    System.out.println(e.getMessage());
                }

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space

BTW, same behavior for 2.0.1 and 3.0.2 edtFTPj/PRO versions

Answer 1

Thanks, we'll take a look. Must have an invalid string length and be trying to read a very long string.

Answer 2

Ok
Please, tell me what is the problem - i need to modify the the bug so QA will be able to verify it, and when it will be fixed.

Answer 3

We've made a mod so it throws an IOException if the length of the public key is unreasonably long. Email us at support at enterprisedt dot com to get a jar to try out.
