something wrong with the rdb parse

the file seems corrupted. the crash in redis-rdb-tools:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "rdbtools/cli/rdb.py", line 107, in <module>
    main()
  File "rdbtools/cli/rdb.py", line 101, in main
    parser.parse(dump_file)
  File "/home/oran/work/redis-rdb-tools/rdbtools/parser.py", line 394, in parse
    self.parse_fd(open(filename, "rb"))
  File "/home/oran/work/redis-rdb-tools/rdbtools/parser.py", line 461, in parse_fd
    self.read_object(f, data_type)
  File "/home/oran/work/redis-rdb-tools/rdbtools/parser.py", line 568, in read_object
    field = self.read_string(f)
  File "/home/oran/work/redis-rdb-tools/rdbtools/parser.py", line 510, in read_string
    raise Exception('read_string', "Invalid string encoding %s"%(length))
Exception: ('read_string', 'Invalid string encoding 56')

trying to load that file into redis:

@lincy991389662 how did you generate that file? is it reproducible? it could be a bug in redis, or something else that corrupted that file after it was produced.
