Make the temporary-file directory and in-memory buffer size configurable - #728
softvisionfd wants to merge 2 commits into
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.

Merge Risk: 🔴 Critical · up to This change does not currently build. A missing comment delimiter in Security Architecture ReviewSecurity architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to Per-worker file isolation depends on the embedding application clearing directory settings and keeping work on the intended thread. Otherwise, later document data could be written outside its intended directory. An additional optional stream-size limit has an overflow edge case. The current source also contains a syntax error that blocks rollout. Retained concerns

maximumSize, including when maxBufferSize is smaller than

Summary
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 these always go to the JVM temporary directory via
File.createTempFile(prefix, suffix), with no way to place them elsewhere, and thein-memory buffer threshold
MAX_BUFFER_SIZEis a fixed constant.This makes it hard to embed the parser in a server that wants temporary files inside
an isolated, per-worker working directory, so they can be cleaned up deterministically
and kept off a shared temp location.
The change adds an opt-in way to control both, following the approach suggested by
@bdoubrov in veraPDF/veraPDF-library#1420.
Changes
org.verapdf.io.TempFileHandleras the single creation point for thesetemporary files, with an optional process-wide default directory
(
setDefaultTempDirectory) and an optional per-thread override (setTempDirectory/
clearTempDirectory) that takes precedence — the natural fit for a server thatprocesses one document per worker thread.
InternalInputStream,InternalOutputStreamandCOSDocument.saveTonow createtheir temporary files through
TempFileHandler.SeekableInputStream.setMaxBufferSizemakes the in-memory buffer thresholdconfigurable (default unchanged at 10240 bytes).
Backward compatibility
Both settings are opt-in. With nothing configured, behaviour is identical to before
(JVM temp directory, 10240-byte threshold), so this is fully backward compatible. The
code stays Java 8 compatible, and all existing parser tests pass.
