The tar inside the archive is damaged: it is truncated, a header checksum is wrong, or it does not end with exactly two all-NUL blocks and nothing after them.
Why it happens
Archive validation reports this code: the registry on upload, and room hosts
before loading. disko publish always writes a well-formed tar. You usually
see it for an archive built by another tool (many add extra zero records at
the end) or one that was cut short.
