Make temporary-file directory and buffer size configurable - #734
Merged

Conversation
The parser writes temporary files while turning non-seekable input (embedded font programs, CMaps, decoded object streams, incremental-update output) into seekable data. Until now they always went to the JVM temporary directory via File.createTempFile(prefix, suffix), with no way to place them elsewhere, and the in-memory buffer threshold MAX_BUFFER_SIZE was a fixed constant. Add TempFileHandler as the single creation point for these files, with an optional process-wide default directory and an optional per-thread override that takes precedence. Route InternalInputStream, InternalOutputStream and COSDocument.saveTo through it. Make the buffer threshold configurable via SeekableInputStream.setMaxBufferSize. Both settings are opt-in: with nothing configured the behaviour is identical to before (JVM temp directory, 10240-byte threshold), so this is backward compatible. This lets a caller keep temporary files inside an isolated, per-thread working directory. Implements the approach discussed in veraPDF-library issue #1420.

Navigate logical layers of code changes, visualize relationships, and explore their blast radius. 📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughTemporary-file creation now uses configurable directory settings. Seekable input streams now use a configurable in-memory buffer threshold when choosing how much input to buffer before spilling to a temporary file. ChangesI/O configuration
Priority: ⬇️ Low Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Change: Feature Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to At the maximum configured size cap, short inputs may incur avoidable disk I/O instead of staying in memory. The impact is bounded, but this edge case should be fixed or accepted. Security Architecture ReviewSecurity architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to Default behavior is preserved, but larger configured buffers expose a previously tightly bounded copying algorithm to substantially larger untrusted inputs. Temporary-directory isolation also depends on callers correctly managing thread-local settings. No input-controlled directory-setting path was established. Retained concerns

- Around line 229-230: Update the maximumSize calculation in the initial-read
logic of SeekableInputStream to avoid overflow when incrementing maxStreamSize.
Perform the increment using a wider numeric type before applying the
bufferThreshold cap, so Integer.MAX_VALUE still respects the in-memory threshold
and does not trigger unnecessary temporary-file creation.

Compute the cap increment without integer overflow.
When maxStreamSize is Integer.MAX_VALUE, maxStreamSize + 1 overflows to a negative value. The initial-read loop then reads no bytes, and createConcatenated writes the entire stream to a temporary file. This bypasses the documented in-memory threshold and causes unnecessary disk I/O. It does not otherwise prevent input processing.
Suggested fix
- int maximumSize = maxStreamSize == null ? bufferThreshold : Math.min(bufferThreshold, maxStreamSize + 1);
+ int maximumSize = maxStreamSize == null ? bufferThreshold
+ : (int) Math.min(bufferThreshold, (long) maxStreamSize + 1);📝 Committable suggestion
‼️ IMPORTANT
Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.
