invalid LEB128 sequence

[carlospaulino]

For a while I’ve been trying to debug why I get invalid LEB128 sequence when working with some test apks. From what I can tell this occurs more often with binaries built with java 7 compatibility. It doesn't occur with binaries built with java 8 compatibility.

I created a sample repo with two almost identical applications with the only difference being the compile compatibility.

@kkoser found the actual problem is in DecodedValue.kt:54 , we will send a PR with some added tests soon.
