[Vm-dev] Reproducible crashing the VM with a zipped fuel serialization

Hi Mariano,

The archive is in Zip64 format. The Zip format documentation (
https://pkware.cachefly.net/webdocs/casestudies/APPNOTE.TXT) states:

 4.4.21 total number of entries in the central dir on
          this disk: (2 bytes)

      The number of central directory entries on this disk.
      If an archive is in ZIP64 format and the value in
      this field is 0xFFFF, the size will be in the
      corresponding 8 byte zip64 end of central
      directory field.

That's exactly what I see, when I look at the data extracted from the
central directory. As was pointed out, the implementation in Pharo doesn't
support Zip64, although it would be nice to have.

Cheers,
Max

Hi Mariano,

I'll check that.

Hi Max,

Great debugging capabilities! Since you are already in deep waters....could
you check if it's the same problem I reported in the email "Problem with
ZipArchive (probably bug due to large file)"?

Thanks a lot in advance,
