A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
Calling ImageIO.read on large png or jpeg images causes ComponentSampleModel to throw exceptions even though the image is valid.

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
1) Create a large image I used the convert program from imagemagick:
convert -size 30000x30000 -colors 256 canvas:khaki canvas_khaki.png

2) Compile the ImageReadTest (from the source code field)
javac ImageReadTest

3) Run the program on the generated image
java ImageReadTest canvas_khaki.png


EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
No errors
ACTUAL -
An exception is thrown.

---------- BEGIN SOURCE ----------
import java.awt.image.*;
import javax.imageio.*;
import java.io.*;

public class ImageReadTest {
    public static void main (String[] args) throws Exception {
for (String a : args) {
File f = new File (a);
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream (f);
BufferedImage bi = ImageIO.read (fis);
bi.flush ();
fis.close ();
}
    }
}
---------- END SOURCE ----------

CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
Split large images into smaller images.
