| Summary | 0000275: PDFs with /Filter/FlateDecode streams are incorrectly marked as "password protected" | ||||
| Description | This commit[1] introduces a change that appears to label PDFs containing /Filter/FlateDecode streams as "password protected". I'm no PDF expert, but this designation seems incorrect as it just indicates that the stream is compressed. It may or may not be encrypted. [1] https://github.com/file/file/commit/629972a91e05fcad8a1b5d906344838539b5f7ab#diff-1d80c89187edc2a2fab5b3ef59fadc199e03d7c8319e7e41e2bd1f329c00fee7 | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | 1. Download the following example PDF: https://github.com/harvard-lts/fits/blob/dev/testfiles/PDF_embedded_resources.pdf 2. Execute: file PDF_embedded_resources.pdf 3. See the following output, even though the file is not password protected: PDF_embedded_resources.pdf: PDF document, version 1.6 (password protected) | ||||
