Hi Phil<br>
<br>
We managed to get exiftool to hang whilst writing to a
corrupt JPEG...
<br><br>
The JPEG which was ONLY 2 bytes long
<br><br>
377330
<br><br>
...Not quite sure how this occurs and we will improve our
error checking so that
this image is rejected before it gets to ExifTool...
<br><br>
However....
<br><br>
If exiftool comes across such an image and you try and
modify it's contents then it
will hang indefinately...
<br><br>
exiftool will correctly identify this as an invalid file if
you try and read the tags.
<br><br>
