A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
the JVM crashes trying to use ImageIO.read with specific JPG images. the image in question has an sRGB embedded profile. the same image displays fine using Preview.App under OSX for instance.

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
ImageInputStream imageInputStream = new MemoryCacheImageInputStream(new ByteArrayInputStream(blob.getBytes(1L, (int)blob.length())));
BufferedImage sourceImage = ImageIO.read(imageInputStream);

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
the image to be read successfully or at worst throwing an exception
ACTUAL -
the JVM crashes and aborts.
