URL: https://github.com/apache/poi/pull/1248

   Three factory methods open a file-backed resource, then only clean it up for 
a subset of the exceptions the following call can actually throw. The remaining 
exception types leak the underlying file handle.
   
   ### `HSSFWorkbookFactory.create(File, String, boolean)`
   
   Catches only `RuntimeException`, but `HSSFWorkbook(POIFSFileSystem, boolean, 
char[])` is declared `throws IOException`. A corrupt or truncated `.xls` that 
fails with an `IOException` leaks the `RandomAccessFile` behind the 
`POIFSFileSystem`.
   
   ### `XSSFWorkbookFactory.createWorkbook(OPCPackage)`
   
   Same gap — catches only `RuntimeException` while `new XSSFWorkbook(pkg)` 
throws `IOException`. Reached from `create(File, String, boolean)`, the package 
is `ZipFile`-backed, so the zip handle leaks.
   
   ### `POIXMLExtractorFactory.create(File, String)`
   
   Handles `InvalidFormatException` and `IOException` but not 
`RuntimeException`. The `InputStream` overload directly below it already has 
that arm, and it is the `File` variant that actually holds a descriptor.
   
   ### Fix
   
   Each catch clause is widened to a multi-catch that reverts/closes and 
rethrows the original exception unchanged — no exception types are wrapped or 
swallowed, so caller-visible behaviour is unchanged apart from the resource now 
being released. `ExtractorFactory.createExtractor(File, String)` already uses 
this `catch (IOException | RuntimeException)` shape.
   
   No public signatures change, so there is nothing for MiMa to check. 
`:poi:compileJava` and `:poi-ooxml:compileJava` pass.
