Weird ArgumentException using IsolatedStorageFile and BitmapImage

I'm using the following code to read some cached images from an IsolatedStorageFile:

using (IsolatedStorageFile storageFile = IsolatedStorageFile.GetUserStoreForApplication())
{
    using (IsolatedStorageFileStream stream = storageFile.OpenFile(filename, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read))
    {
        BitmapImage result = new BitmapImage();
        result.SetSource(stream);
        return result;
    }
}

From time to time I get the following exception:

enter image description here

The detail has the following text:

Offset and length were out of bounds for the array or count is greater than the number of elements from index to the end of the source collection

Any ideas? I don't know if this matters but this code is accessed in a heavy multithreaded environment (I mean that there are a lot of threads calling these lines).

I know this is a first chance exception but anyway I don't get the reason.

I have encountered the same error with very similar code. in my experience it only happens on a corrupt photo file. the photos are all generated by the CameraCaptureTask and i have never been able to reproduce the error, but it happens in the wild.

the error message is a bit misleading.

i'm explicitly calling Close+Dispose on the filestream but that is equivalent to the "using" declarations, ignacio is correct in his reply above.

Remove the second using statement for stream object which will fix the issue.
