I'm filing related bugs under this same issue.

```
import plistlib
dat = b'Q\xe4\xfeAIAAAAAAAAwAAA\xc9A\xc1AAA\xc1AAAAAAA\x9cAAAAAAAAAAAAAAnAAA\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x0b\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00AA'
plistlib.loads(dat, fmt=plistlib.FMT_BINARY)
```
raises

```
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "repro.py", line 3, in <module>
    plistlib.loads(dat, fmt=plistlib.FMT_BINARY)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.5/plistlib.py", line 1006, in loads
    fp, fmt=fmt, use_builtin_types=use_builtin_types, dict_type=dict_type)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.5/plistlib.py", line 997, in load
    return p.parse(fp)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.5/plistlib.py", line 623, in parse
    return self._read_object(self._object_offsets[top_object])
  File "/usr/lib/python3.5/plistlib.py", line 699, in _read_object
    result =  self._fp.read(s).decode('ascii')
UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe4 in position 0: ordinal not in range(128)
```

It seems only `InvalidFileException` should be raised by this function.
