A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
For certain inputs, ImageIO read fails:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: -1
at java.util.ArrayList.elementData(ArrayList.java:422)
at java.util.ArrayList.get(ArrayList.java:435)
at com.sun.imageio.plugins.jpeg.JPEGImageReader.checkTablesOnly(JPEGImageReader.java:378)
at com.sun.imageio.plugins.jpeg.JPEGImageReader.gotoImage(JPEGImageReader.java:492)
at com.sun.imageio.plugins.jpeg.JPEGImageReader.readHeader(JPEGImageReader.java:613)
at com.sun.imageio.plugins.jpeg.JPEGImageReader.readInternal(JPEGImageReader.java:1070)
at com.sun.imageio.plugins.jpeg.JPEGImageReader.read(JPEGImageReader.java:1050)
at javax.imageio.ImageIO.read(ImageIO.java:1448)
at javax.imageio.ImageIO.read(ImageIO.java:1308)
at image_io_write.Main.main(Main.java:17)



STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Create a file with the following binary input (hexdump output):
d8ff d8d8 d8d8 d8d8 d8d8 d8d8 d8d8 d8d8
d8d8 d8d8 d8d8 d8d8 d8d8 d8d8 d8d8 d8d8
d8d8 d8d8 d8d8 d8d8 d8d8 d8d8 7fd8 ffff

Execute the following code, where "file" is a File object, with its content described above:

BufferedImage img = null;
try {
    img = ImageIO.read(file);
} catch (IOException e) {
}

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
read should fail by returning null, or by throwing an IOException, as described in the official documentation.
ACTUAL -
fails, throwing ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException exception
