3.08 can identify necessary system files as "decompression bombs"

[grantwmiller]

This is tricky.  OsX Snow Leopard and Leopard contain system packages which are necessary for the computer to boot, which 3.08 identifies as decompression bombs.  BE ADVISED IF IT LOOKS SYSTEM IS ISN'T LIKELY A THREAT! --gwm

Hallo,
this is hard to solve, in general, because the file really has all properties as a hand-crafted decompression bomb. Well, we can raise those limit, but the drawback will be that some real decompression bombs won't be detected anymore.

Solution is to use exceptions on those system directories (= don't scan them). Wait please for 3.10 version, which is built right now, and will rerplace the 3.07, 08 and 09 where sdome flaws were found (all of them were consequences of apple's internal quirks - sigh).

regards,
