91 Version 0.88 [January, 1996]
92 fixed progressive bugs
93 replaced tabs with spaces
94 cleaned up documentation
95 added callbacks for read/write and warning/error functions
97 Version 0.89 [June 5, 1996]
98 Added new initialization API to make libpng work better with shared libs
99 we now have png_create_read_struct(), png_create_write_struct(),
100 png_create_info_struct(), png_destroy_read_struct(), and
101 png_destroy_write_struct() instead of the separate calls to
102 malloc and png_read_init(), png_info_init(), and png_write_init()
103 Changed warning/error callback functions to fix bug - this means you
104 should use the new initialization API if you were using the old
105 png_set_message_fn() calls, and that the old API no longer exists
106 so that people are aware that they need to change their code
107 Changed filter selection API to allow selection of multiple filters
108 since it didn't work in previous versions of libpng anyways
109 Optimized filter selection code
110 Fixed png_set_background() to allow using an arbitrary RGB color for
112 Fixed gamma and background correction for paletted images, so
113 png_correct_palette is not needed unless you are correcting an
114 external palette (you will need to #define PNG_CORRECT_PALETTE_SUPPORTED
115 in pngconf.h) - if nobody uses this, it may disappear in the future.
116 Fixed bug with Borland 64K memory allocation (Alexander Lehmann)
117 Fixed bug in interlace handling (Smarasderagd, I think)
118 Added more error checking for writing and image to reduce invalid files
119 Separated read and write functions so that they won't both be linked
120 into a binary when only reading or writing functionality is used
121 New pngtest image also has interlacing and zTXt
122 Updated documentation to reflect new API
124 Version 0.89c [June 17, 1996]
127 Version 0.90 [January, 1997]
128 Made CRC errors/warnings on critical and ancillary chunks configurable
129 libpng will use the zlib CRC routines by (compile-time) default
130 Changed DOS small/medium model memory support - needs zlib 1.04 (Tim Wegner)
131 Added external C++ wrapper statements to png.h (Gilles Dauphin)
132 Allow PNG file to be read when some or all of file signature has already
133 been read from the beginning of the stream. ****This affects the size
134 of info_struct and invalidates all programs that use a shared libpng****
135 Fixed png_filler() declarations
136 Fixed? background color conversions
137 Fixed order of error function pointers to match documentation
138 Current chunk name is now available in png_struct to reduce the number
139 of nearly identical error messages (will simplify multi-lingual
140 support when available)
141 Try to get ready for unknown-chunk callback functions:
142 - previously read critical chunks are flagged, so the chunk handling
143 routines can determine if the chunk is in the right place
144 - all chunk handling routines have the same prototypes, so we will
145 be able to handle all chunks via a callback mechanism
146 Try to fix Linux "setjmp" buffer size problems
147 Removed png_large_malloc, png_large_free, and png_realloc functions.
149 Version 0.95 [March, 1997]
150 Fixed bug in pngwutil.c allocating "up_row" twice and "avg_row" never
151 Fixed bug in PNG file signature compares when start != 0
152 Changed parameter type of png_set_filler(...filler...) from png_byte
154 Added test for MACOS to ensure that both math.h and fp.h are not #included
155 Added macros for libpng to be compiled as a Windows DLL (Andreas Kupries)
156 Added "packswap" transformation, which changes the endianness of
157 packed-pixel bytes (Kevin Bracey)
158 Added "strip_alpha" transformation, which removes the alpha channel of
159 input images without using it (not necessarily a good idea)
160 Added "swap_alpha" transformation, which puts the alpha channel in front
161 of the color bytes instead of after
162 Removed all implicit variable tests which assume NULL == 0 (I think)
163 Changed several variables to "png_size_t" to show 16/32-bit limitations
164 Added new pCAL chunk read/write support
165 Added experimental filter selection weighting (Greg Roelofs)
166 Removed old png_set_rgbx() and png_set_xrgb() functions that have been
167 obsolete for about 2 years now (use png_set_filler() instead)
168 Added macros to read 16- and 32-bit ints directly from buffer, to be
169 used only on those systems that support it (namely PowerPC and 680x0)
170 With some testing, this may become the default for MACOS/PPC systems.
171 Only calculate CRC on data if we are going to use it
172 Added macros for zTXt compression type PNG_zTXt_COMPRESSION_???
173 Added macros for simple libpng debugging output selectable at compile time
174 Removed PNG_READ_END_MODE in progressive reader (Smarasderagd)
175 More description of info_struct in libpng.txt and png.h
176 More instructions in example.c
177 More chunk types tested in pngtest.c
178 Renamed pngrcb.c to pngset.c, and all png_read_<chunk> functions to be
179 png_set_<chunk>. We now have corresponding png_get_<chunk>
180 functions in pngget.c to get information in info_ptr. This isolates
181 the application from the internal organization of png_info_struct
182 (good for shared library implementations).
184 Version 0.96 [May, 1997]
185 Fixed serious bug with < 8bpp images introduced in 0.95

203 Minor corrections in libpng.txt
204 Added simple sRGB support (Glenn R-P)
205 Easier conditional compiling, e.g.,
206 define PNG_READ/WRITE_NOT_FULLY_SUPPORTED;
207 all configurable options can be selected from command line instead
208 of having to edit pngconf.h (Glenn R-P)
209 Fixed memory leak in pngwrite.c (free info_ptr->text) (Glenn R-P)
210 Added more conditions for png_do_background, to avoid changing
211 black pixels to background when a background is supplied and
212 no pixels are transparent
213 Repaired PNG_NO_STDIO behavior
214 Tested NODIV support and made it default behavior (Greg Roelofs)
215 Added "-m" option and PNGTEST_DEBUG_MEMORY to pngtest (John Bowler)

226 screen_gamma, viewing_gamma, and display_gamma.
227 Changed all references to RFC1152 to read RFC1123 and changed the
228 PNG_TIME_RFC1152_SUPPORTED macro to PNG_TIME_RFC1123_SUPPORTED
229 Added png_invert_alpha capability (Glenn R-P -- suggestion by Jon Vincent)
230 Changed srgb_intent from png_byte to int to avoid compiler bugs
232 Version 0.99 [January 30, 1998]
233 Free info_ptr->text instead of end_info_ptr->text in pngread.c (John Bowler)
234 Fixed a longstanding "packswap" bug in pngtrans.c
235 Fixed some inconsistencies in pngconf.h that prevented compiling with
236 PNG_READ_GAMMA_SUPPORTED and PNG_READ_hIST_SUPPORTED undefined
237 Fixed some typos and made other minor rearrangement of libpng.txt (Andreas)
238 Changed recommendation about file_gamma for PC images to .50 from .51 in
239 example.c and libpng.txt, and changed file_gamma for sRGB images to .45
240 Added a number of functions to access information from the png structure

390 added warnings when people try to set png_read_fn and png_write_fn in
392 Added a test such that png_do_gamma will be done when num_trans==0

394 error that was introduced in libpng-0.90 that can cause gamma processing
396 Added tests in png.h to include "trans" and "trans_values" in structures
397 when PNG_READ_BACKGROUND_SUPPORTED or PNG_READ_EXPAND_SUPPORTED is defined.

418 passes that it should skip, for images that are less than 3 pixels high.
419 Interchanged the order of calls to png_do_swap() and png_do_shift()
420 in pngwtran.c (John Cromer).

556 Added code in pngwrite.c to free info_ptr->text[i].key to stop a memory leak.
558 Version 1.0.5b [November 23, 1999]
559 Moved PNG_FLAG_HAVE_CHUNK_HEADER, PNG_FLAG_BACKGROUND_IS_GRAY and

567 Moved png_get_header_version from png.h to png.c, to accommodate ansi2knr.
568 Removed all global arrays (according to PNG_NO_GLOBAL_ARRAYS macro), to
569 accommodate making DLL's: Moved usr_png_ver from global variable to function
570 png_get_header_ver() in png.c. Moved png_sig to png_sig_bytes in png.c and
571 eliminated use of png_sig in pngwutil.c. Moved the various png_CHNK arrays
572 into pngtypes.h. Eliminated use of global png_pass arrays. Declared the
573 png_CHNK and png_pass arrays to be "const". Made the global arrays

580 Version 1.0.5d [November 29, 1999]
581 Add type cast (png_const_charp) two places in png.c
582 Eliminated pngtypes.h; use macros instead to declare PNG_CHNK arrays.
583 Renamed "PNG_GLOBAL_ARRAYS" to "PNG_USE_GLOBAL_ARRAYS" and made available
584 to applications a macro "PNG_USE_LOCAL_ARRAYS".
585 comment out (with #ifdef) all the new declarations when
586 PNG_USE_GLOBAL_ARRAYS is defined.
587 Added PNG_EXPORT_VAR macro to accommodate making DLL's.
589 Version 1.0.5e [November 30, 1999]
590 Added iCCP, iTXt, and sPLT support; added "lang" member to the png_text
591 structure; refactored the inflate/deflate support to make adding new chunks
592 with trailing compressed parts easier in the future, and added new functions
593 png_free_iCCP, png_free_pCAL, png_free_sPLT, png_free_text, png_get_iCCP,
594 png_get_spalettes, png_set_iCCP, png_set_spalettes (Eric S. Raymond).
595 NOTE: Applications that write text chunks MUST define png_text->lang
596 before calling png_set_text(). It must be set to NULL if you want to
597 write tEXt or zTXt chunks. If you want your application to be able to
598 run with older versions of libpng, use
600 #ifdef PNG_iTXt_SUPPORTED
601 png_text[i].lang = NULL;
604 Changed png_get_oFFs() and png_set_oFFs() to use signed rather than unsigned
605 offsets (Eric S. Raymond).
606 Combined PNG_READ_cHNK_SUPPORTED and PNG_WRITE_cHNK_SUPPORTED macros into
607 PNG_cHNK_SUPPORTED and combined the three types of PNG_text_SUPPORTED
608 macros, leaving the separate macros also available.
609 Removed comments on #endifs at the end of many short, non-nested #if-blocks.
611 Version 1.0.5f [December 6, 1999]
612 Changed makefile.solaris to issue a warning about potential problems when
613 the ucb "ld" is in the path ahead of the ccs "ld".
614 Removed "- [date]" from the "synopsis" line in libpng.3 and libpngpf.3.
615 Added sCAL chunk support (Eric S. Raymond).
617 Version 1.0.5g [December 7, 1999]
618 Fixed "png_free_spallettes" typo in png.h
619 Added code to handle new chunks in pngpread.c
620 Moved PNG_CHNK string macro definitions outside of PNG_NO_EXTERN block
621 Added "translated_key" to png_text structure and png_write_iTXt().
622 Added code in pngwrite.c to work around a newly discovered zlib bug.
624 Version 1.0.5h [December 10, 1999]
625 NOTE: regarding the note for version 1.0.5e, the following must also
626 be included in your code:
627 png_text[i].translated_key = NULL;
628 Unknown chunk handling is now supported.
629 Option to eliminate all floating point support was added. Some new
630 fixed-point functions such as png_set_gAMA_fixed() were added.
631 Expanded tabs and removed trailing blanks in source files.
633 Version 1.0.5i [December 13, 1999]

638 Added a test for up->location != 0 in the first instance of writing
639 unknown chunks in pngwrite.c
640 Changed "num" to "i" in png_free_spalettes() and png_free_unknowns() to
642 Added png_free_hIST() function.
643 Various patches to fix bugs in the sCAL and integer cHRM processing,
644 and to add some convenience macros for use with sCAL.
646 Version 1.0.5j [December 21, 1999]
647 Changed "unit" parameter of png_write_sCAL from png_byte to int, to work
648 around buggy compilers.
649 Added new type "png_fixed_point" for integers that hold float*100000 values
650 Restored backward compatibility of tEXt/zTXt chunk processing:
651 Restored the first four members of png_text to the same order as v.1.0.5d.
652 Added members "lang_key" and "itxt_length" to png_text struct. Set
653 text_length=0 when "text" contains iTXt data. Use the "compression"
654 member to distinguish among tEXt/zTXt/iTXt types. Added
655 PNG_ITXT_COMPRESSION_NONE (1) and PNG_ITXT_COMPRESSION_zTXt(2) macros.
656 The "Note" above, about backward incompatibility of libpng-1.0.5e, no
658 Fixed png_read|write_iTXt() to read|write parameters in the right order,
659 and to write the iTXt chunk after IDAT if it appears in the end_ptr.
660 Added pnggccrd.c, version of pngvcrd.c Intel assembler for gcc (Greg Roelofs)
661 Reversed the order of trying to write floating-point and fixed-point gAMA.
663 Version 1.0.5k [December 27, 1999]
664 Added many parentheses, e.g., "if (a && b & c)" becomes "if (a && (b & c))"
665 Added png_handle_as_unknown() function (Glenn)
666 Added png_free_chunk_list() function and chunk_list and num_chunk_list members
668 Eliminated erroneous warnings about multiple sPLT chunks and sPLT-after-PLTE.
669 Fixed a libpng-1.0.5h bug in pngrutil.c that was issuing erroneous warnings
670 about ignoring incorrect gAMA with sRGB (gAMA was in fact not ignored)
671 Added png_free_tRNS(); png_set_tRNS() now malloc's its own trans array (ESR).
672 Define png_get_int_32 when oFFs chunk is supported as well as when pCAL is.
673 Changed type of proflen from png_int_32 to png_uint_32 in png_get_iCCP().
675 Version 1.0.5l [January 1, 2000]
676 Added functions png_set_read_user_chunk_fn() and png_get_user_chunk_ptr()
677 for setting a callback function to handle unknown chunks and for
678 retrieving the associated user pointer (Glenn).
680 Version 1.0.5m [January 7, 2000]
681 Added high-level functions png_read_png(), png_write_png(), png_free_pixels().
683 Version 1.0.5n [January 9, 2000]
684 Added png_free_PLTE() function, and modified png_set_PLTE() to malloc its
685 own memory for info_ptr->palette. This makes it safe for the calling
686 application to free its copy of the palette any time after it calls
689 Version 1.0.5o [January 20, 2000]
690 Cosmetic changes only (removed some trailing blanks and TABs)

703 Removed superfluous prototype for png_get_itxt from png.h
704 Fixed a bug in pngrtran.c that improperly expanded the background color.
705 Return *num_text=0 from png_get_text() when appropriate, and fix documentation
706 of png_get_text() in libpng.txt/libpng.3.
708 Version 1.0.5s [February 18, 2000]
709 Added "png_jmp_env()" macro to pngconf.h, to help people migrate to the
710 new error handler that's planned for the next libpng release, and changed
711 example.c, pngtest.c, and contrib programs to use this macro.
712 Revised some of the DLL-export macros in pngconf.h (Greg Roelofs)
713 Fixed a bug in png_read_png() that caused it to fail to expand some images
714 that it should have expanded.
715 Fixed some mistakes in the unused and undocumented INCH_CONVERSIONS functions
717 Changed the allocation of palette, history, and trans arrays back to
718 the version 1.0.5 method (linking instead of copying) which restores
719 backward compatibility with version 1.0.5. Added some remarks about
720 that in example.c. Added "free_me" member to info_ptr and png_ptr
721 and added png_free_data() function.
722 Updated makefile.linux and makefile.gccmmx to make directories conditionally.
723 Made cosmetic changes to pngasmrd.h
724 Added png_set_rows() and png_get_rows(), for use with png_read|write_png().

726 hasn't already been allocated.
728 Version 1.0.5t [March 4, 2000]
729 Changed png_jmp_env() migration aiding macro to png_jmpbuf().
730 Fixed "interlace" typo (should be "interlaced") in contrib/gregbook/read2-x.c

732 PNG_FLAG_HAVE_CHUNK_HEADER was moved into png_ptr->mode in version 1.0.5b
733 Files in contrib/gregbook were revised to use png_jmpbuf() and to select
734 a 24-bit visual if one is available, and to allow abbreviated options.
735 Files in contrib/pngminus were revised to use the png_jmpbuf() macro.
736 Removed spaces in makefile.linux and makefile.gcmmx, introduced in 1.0.5s
738 Version 1.0.5u [March 5, 2000]

740 Renamed png_spalette (_p, _pp) to png_sPLT_t (_tp, _tpp)
741 Increased precision of rgb_to_gray calculations from 8 to 15 bits and
742 added png_set_rgb_to_gray_fixed() function.
743 Added makefile.bc32 (32-bit Borland C++, C mode)
745 Version 1.0.5v [March 11, 2000]
746 Added some parentheses to the png_jmpbuf macro definition.
747 Updated references to the zlib home page, which has moved to freesoftware.com.
748 Corrected bugs in documentation regarding png_read_row() and png_write_row().

758 Changed sprintf() to strcpy() in png_write_sCAL_s() to work without STDIO
759 Added data_length parameter to png_decompress_chunk() function
760 Revised documentation to remove reference to abandoned png_free_chnk functions
761 Fixed an error in png_rgb_to_gray_fixed()

764 Added a check for info_ptr->free_me&PNG_FREE_TEXT when freeing text in png.c
765 Simplify png_sig_bytes() function to remove use of non-ISO-C strdup().
767 Version 1.0.6e [April 9, 2000]
768 Added png_data_freer() function.
769 In the code that checks for over-length tRNS chunks, added check of
770 info_ptr->num_trans as well as png_ptr->num_trans (Matthias Benckmann)
771 Minor revisions of libpng.txt/libpng.3.
772 Check for existing data and free it if the free_me flag is set, in png_set_*()
774 Only define PNG_WEIGHTED_FILTERS_SUPPORTED when PNG_FLOATING_POINT_SUPPORTED
776 Changed several instances of PNG_NO_CONSOLE_ID to PNG_NO_STDIO in pngrutil.c
777 and mentioned the purposes of the two macros in libpng.txt/libpng.3.
779 Version 1.0.6f [April 14, 2000]
780 Revised png_set_iCCP() and png_set_rows() to avoid prematurely freeing data.
781 Add checks in png_set_text() for NULL members of the input text structure.
782 Revised libpng.txt/libpng.3.
783 Removed superfluous prototype for png_set_iTXt from png.h
784 Removed "else" from pngread.c, after png_error(), and changed "0" to "length".
785 Changed several png_errors about malformed ancillary chunks to png_warnings.
787 Version 1.0.6g [April 24, 2000]
788 Added png_pass-* arrays to pnggccrd.c when PNG_USE_LOCAL_ARRAYS is defined.
789 Relocated paragraph about png_set_background() in libpng.3/libpng.txt
790 and other revisions (Matthias Benckmann)
791 Relocated info_ptr->free_me, png_ptr->free_me, and other info_ptr and
792 png_ptr members to restore binary compatibility with libpng-1.0.5
793 (breaks compatibility with libpng-1.0.6).
795 Version 1.0.6h [April 24, 2000]
796 Changed shared library so-number pattern from 2.x.y.z to xy.z (this builds
797 libpng.so.10 & libpng.so.10.6h instead of libpng.so.2 & libpng.so.2.1.0.6h)
798 This is a temporary change for test purposes.
800 Version 1.0.6i [May 2, 2000]
801 Rearranged some members at the end of png_info and png_struct, to put
802 unknown_chunks_num and free_me within the original size of the png_structs
803 and free_me, png_read_user_fn, and png_free_fn within the original png_info,
804 because some old applications allocate the structs directly instead of
805 using png_create_*().
806 Added documentation of user memory functions in libpng.txt/libpng.3
807 Modified png_read_png so that it will use user_allocated row_pointers
808 if present, unless free_me directs that it be freed, and added description
809 of the use of png_set_rows() and png_get_rows() in libpng.txt/libpng.3.
810 Added PNG_LEGACY_SUPPORTED macro, and #ifdef out all new (since version
811 1.00) members of png_struct and png_info, to regain binary compatibility
812 when you define this macro. Capabilities lost in this event
813 are user transforms (new in version 1.0.0),the user transform pointer
814 (new in version 1.0.2), rgb_to_gray (new in 1.0.5), iCCP, sCAL, sPLT,
815 the high-level interface, and unknown chunks support (all new in 1.0.6).
816 This was necessary because of old applications that allocate the structs
817 directly as authors were instructed to do in libpng-0.88 and earlier,
818 instead of using png_create_*().
819 Added modes PNG_CREATED_READ_STRUCT and PNG_CREATED_WRITE_STRUCT which
820 can be used to detect codes that directly allocate the structs, and
821 code to check these modes in png_read_init() and png_write_init() and
822 generate a libpng error if the modes aren't set and PNG_LEGACY_SUPPORTED
824 Added makefile.intel and updated makefile.watcom (Pawel Mrochen)
826 Version 1.0.6j [May 3, 2000]
827 Overloaded png_read_init() and png_write_init() with macros that convert
828 calls to png_read_init_2() or png_write_init_2() that check the version
831 Version 1.0.7beta11 [May 7, 2000]
832 Removed the new PNG_CREATED_READ_STRUCT and PNG_CREATED_WRITE_STRUCT modes
833 which are no longer used.
834 Eliminated the three new members of png_text when PNG_LEGACY_SUPPORTED is
835 defined or when neither PNG_READ_iTXt_SUPPORTED nor PNG_WRITE_iTXt_SUPPORTED
837 Made PNG_NO_READ|WRITE_iTXt the default setting, to avoid memory
838 overrun when old applications fill the info_ptr->text structure directly.
839 Added PNGAPI macro, and added it to the definitions of all exported functions.
840 Relocated version macro definitions ahead of the includes of zlib.h and
843 Version 1.0.7beta12 [May 12, 2000]
844 Revised pngset.c to avoid a problem with expanding the png_debug macro.
845 Deleted some extraneous defines from pngconf.h
846 Made PNG_NO_CONSOLE_IO the default condition when PNG_BUILD_DLL is defined.
847 Use MSC _RPTn debugging instead of fprintf if _MSC_VER is defined.
848 Added png_access_version_number() function.
849 Check for mask&PNG_FREE_CHNK (for TEXT, SCAL, PCAL) in png_free_data().
850 Expanded libpng.3/libpng.txt information about png_data_freer().
852 Version 1.0.7beta14 [May 17, 2000] (beta13 was not published)
853 Changed pnggccrd.c and pngvcrd.c to handle bad adaptive filter types as
854 warnings instead of errors, as pngrutil.c does.
855 Set the PNG_INFO_IDAT valid flag in png_set_rows() so png_write_png()

2324 Revised libpng*.txt and libpng.3 to mention calling png_set_IHDR()
2325 multiple times and to specify the sample order in the tRNS chunk,
2326 because the ISO PNG specification has a typo in the tRNS table.

2509 Removed the deprecated png_check_sig() function/macro.
2510 Removed recently removed function names from scripts/*.def
2511 Revised pngtest.png to put chunks in the same order written by pngtest
2512 (evidently the same change made in libpng-1.0beta54 was lost).
2513 Added PNG_PRIVATE macro definition in pngconf.h for possible future use.
2515 Version 1.4.0beta97 [November 13, 2009]
2516 Restored pngtest.png to the libpng-1.4.0beta7 version.
2517 Removed projects/beos and netware.txt; no one seems to be supporting them.
2520 Version 1.4.0beta98 [November 13, 2009]
2521 Added the "xcode" project to zip distributions,
2522 Fixed a typo in scripts/pngwin.def introduced in beta97.
2524 Version 1.4.0beta99 [November 14, 2009]
2525 Moved libpng-config.in and libpng.pc-configure.in out of the scripts
2526 directory, to libpng-config.in and libpng-pc.in, respectively, and
2527 modified Makefile.am and configure.ac accordingly. Now "configure"
2528 needs nothing from the "scripts" directory.
2529 Avoid redefining PNG_CONST in pngconf.h
2531 Version 1.4.0beta100 [November 14, 2009]
2532 Removed ASM builds from projects/visualc6 and projects/visualc71
2533 Removed scripts/makefile.nommx and makefile.vcawin32
2534 Revised CMakeLists.txt to account for new location of libpng-config.in
2536 Updated INSTALL to reflect removal and relocation of files.
2538 Version 1.4.0beta101 [November 14, 2009]
2539 Restored the binary files (*.jpg, *.png, some project files) that were
2540 accidentally deleted from the zip and 7z distributions when the xcode
2543 Version 1.4.0beta102 [November 18, 2009]
2544 Added libpng-config.in and libpng-pc.in to the zip and 7z distributions.
2545 Fixed a typo in projects/visualc6/pngtest.dsp, introduced in beta100.
2546 Moved descriptions of makefiles and other scripts out of INSTALL into
2548 Updated the copyright year in scripts/pngwin.rc from 2006 to 2009.
2550 Version 1.4.0beta103 [November 21, 2009]
2551 Removed obsolete comments about ASM from projects/visualc71/README_zlib.txt
2552 Align row_buf on 16-byte boundary in memory.
2553 Restored the PNG_WRITE_FLUSH_AFTER_IEND_SUPPORTED guard around the call
2554 to png_flush() after png_write_IEND(). See 1.4.0beta32, 1.4.0beta50
2555 changes above and 1.2.30, 1.2.30rc01 and rc03 in 1.2.41 CHANGES. Someone
2557 Make the 'png_jmpbuf' macro expand to a call that records the correct
2558 longjmp function as well as returning a pointer to the setjmp
2559 jmp_buf buffer, and marked direct access to jmpbuf 'deprecated'.
2562 Version 1.4.0beta104 [November 22, 2009]
2563 Removed png_longjmp_ptr from scripts/*.def and libpng.3
2564 Rebuilt configure scripts with autoconf-2.65
2566 Version 1.4.0beta105 [November 25, 2009]
2567 Use fast integer PNG_DIVIDE_BY_255() or PNG_DIVIDE_BY_65535()
2568 to accomplish alpha premultiplication when
2569 PNG_READ_COMPOSITE_NODIV_SUPPORTED is defined.
2570 Changed "/255" to "/255.0" in background calculations to make it clear
2571 that the 255 is used as a double.
2573 Version 1.4.0beta106 [November 27, 2009]
2574 Removed premultiplied alpha feature.
2576 Version 1.4.0beta107 [December 4, 2009]
2578 Added "#define PNG_NO_PEDANTIC_WARNINGS" in the libpng source files.
2579 Removed "-DPNG_CONFIGURE_LIBPNG" from the makefiles and projects.
2580 Revised scripts/makefile.netbsd, makefile.openbsd, and makefile.sco
2581 to put png.h and pngconf.h in $prefix/include, like the other scripts,
2582 instead of in $prefix/include/libpng. Also revised makefile.sco
2583 to put them in $prefix/include/libpng15 instead of in
2584 $prefix/include/libpng/libpng15.
2586 Version 1.4.0beta108 [December 11, 2009]
2587 Removed leftover "-DPNG_CONFIGURE_LIBPNG" from contrib/pngminim/*/makefile
2588 Relocated png_do_chop() to its original position in pngrtran.c; the
2589 change in version 1.2.41beta08 caused transparency to be handled wrong
2590 in some 16-bit datastreams (Yusaku Sugai).
2592 Version 1.4.0beta109 [December 13, 2009]
2593 Added "bit_depth" parameter to the private png_build_gamma_table() function.
2594 Pass bit_depth=8 to png_build_gamma_table() when bit_depth is 16 but the
2595 PNG_16_TO_8 transform has been set, to avoid unnecessary build of 16-bit
2598 Version 1.4.0rc02 [December 20, 2009]
2599 Declared png_cleanup_needed "volatile" in pngread.c and pngwrite.c
2601 Version 1.4.0rc03 [December 22, 2009]
2602 Renamed libpng-pc.in back to libpng.pc.in and revised CMakeLists.txt

2605 Version 1.4.0rc04 [December 25, 2009]
2606 Swapped PNG_UNKNOWN_CHUNKS_SUPPORTED and PNG_HANDLE_AS_UNKNOWN_SUPPORTED
2607 in pngset.c to be consistent with other changes in version 1.2.38.
2609 Version 1.4.0rc05 [December 25, 2009]
2610 Changed "libpng-pc.in" to "libpng.pc.in" in configure.ac, configure, and
2611 Makefile.in to be consistent with changes in libpng-1.4.0rc03
2613 Version 1.4.0rc06 [December 29, 2009]
2614 Reverted the gamma_table changes from libpng-1.4.0beta109.
2615 Fixed some indentation errors.
2617 Version 1.4.0rc07 [January 1, 2010]
2618 Revised libpng*.txt and libpng.3 about 1.2.x->1.4.x differences.
2619 Use png_calloc() instead of png_malloc(); png_memset() in pngrutil.c
2620 Update copyright year to 2010.
2622 Version 1.4.0rc08 [January 2, 2010]
2623 Avoid deprecated references to png_ptr-io_ptr and png_ptr->error_ptr
2626 Version 1.4.0 [January 3, 2010]
2629 Version 1.4.1beta01 [January 8, 2010]
2630 Updated CMakeLists.txt for consistent indentation and to avoid an
2631 unclosed if-statement warning (Philip Lowman).
2632 Revised Makefile.am and Makefile.in to remove references to Y2KINFO,
2633 KNOWNBUG, and libpng.la (Robert Schwebel).
2634 Revised the makefiles to install the same files and symbolic
2635 links as configure, except for libpng.la and libpng14.la.
2636 Make png_set|get_compression_buffer_size() available even when
2637 PNG_WRITE_SUPPORTED is not enabled.
2638 Revised Makefile.am and Makefile.in to simplify their maintenance.
2639 Revised scripts/makefile.linux to install a link to libpng14.so.14.1
2641 Version 1.4.1beta02 [January 9, 2010]
2642 Revised the rest of the makefiles to install a link to libpng14.so.14.1
2644 Version 1.4.1beta03 [January 10, 2010]
2645 Removed png_set_premultiply_alpha() from scripts/*.def
2647 Version 1.4.1rc01 [January 16, 2010]
2650 Version 1.4.1beta04 [January 23, 2010]
2651 Revised png_decompress_chunk() to improve speed and memory usage when
2652 decoding large chunks.
2653 Added png_set|get_chunk_malloc_max() functions.
2655 Version 1.4.1beta05 [January 26, 2010]
2656 Relocated "int k" declaration in pngtest.c to minimize its scope.
2658 Version 1.4.1beta06 [January 28, 2010]
2659 Revised png_decompress_chunk() to use a two-pass method suggested by
2662 Version 1.4.1beta07 [February 6, 2010]
2663 Folded some long lines in the source files.
2664 Added definable PNG_USER_CHUNK_CACHE_MAX, PNG_USER_CHUNK_MALLOC_MAX,
2665 and a PNG_USER_LIMITS_SUPPORTED flag.
2666 Eliminated use of png_ptr->irowbytes and reused the slot in png_ptr as
2667 png_ptr->png_user_chunk_malloc_max.
2668 Revised png_push_save_buffer() to do fewer but larger png_malloc() calls.
2670 Version 1.4.1beta08 [February 6, 2010]
2671 Minor cleanup and updating of dates and copyright year.
2673 Version 1.5.0beta01 [February 7, 2010]
2674 Moved declaration of png_struct into private pngstruct.h and png_info
2677 Version 1.4.1beta09 and 1.5.0beta02 [February 7, 2010]
2678 Reverted to original png_push_save_buffer() code.
2680 Version 1.4.1beta10 and 1.5.0beta03 [February 8, 2010]
2681 Return allocated "old_buffer" in png_push_save_buffer() before
2682 calling png_error(), to avoid a potential memory leak.
2683 Updated configure script to use SO number 15.
2685 Version 1.5.0beta04 [February 9, 2010]
2686 Removed malformed "incomplete struct declaration" of png_info from png.h
2688 Version 1.5.0beta05 [February 12, 2010]
2689 Removed PNG_DEPSTRUCT markup in pngstruct.h and pnginfo.h, and undid the
2690 linewrapping that it entailed.
2691 Revised comments in pngstruct.h and pnginfo.h and added pointers to
2693 Changed PNG_INTERNAL to PNG_EXPOSE_INTERNAL_STRUCTURES
2694 Removed the cbuilder5 project, which has not been updated to 1.4.0.
2696 Version 1.4.1beta12 and 1.5.0beta06 [February 14, 2010]
2697 Fixed type declaration of png_get_chunk_malloc_max() in pngget.c (Daisuke
2700 Version 1.5.0beta07 [omitted]
2702 Version 1.5.0beta08 [February 19, 2010]
2703 Changed #ifdef PNG_NO_STDIO_SUPPORTED to #ifdef PNG_NO_CONSOLE_IO_SUPPORTED
2704 wherever png_snprintf() is used to construct error and warning messages.
2705 Noted in scripts/makefile.mingw that it expects to be run under MSYS.
2706 Removed obsolete unused MMX-querying support from contrib/gregbook
2707 Added exported png_longjmp() function.
2708 Removed the AIX redefinition of jmpbuf in png.h
2709 Added -D_ALLSOURCE in configure.ac, makefile.aix, and CMakeLists.txt
2710 when building on AIX.
2712 Version 1.5.0beta09 [February 19, 2010]
2713 Removed -D_ALLSOURCE from configure.ac, makefile.aix, and CMakeLists.txt.
2714 Changed the name of png_ptr->jmpbuf to png_ptr->png_jmpbuf in pngstruct.h
2716 Version 1.5.0beta10 [February 25, 2010]
2717 Removed unused gzio.c from contrib/pngminim gather and makefile scripts
2718 Removed replacement error handlers from contrib/gregbook. Because of
2719 the new png_longjmp() function they are no longer needed.
2721 Version 1.5.0beta11 [March 6, 2010]
2722 Removed checking for already-included setjmp.h from pngconf.h
2723 Fixed inconsistent indentations and made numerous cosmetic changes.
2724 Revised the "SEE ALSO" style of libpng.3, libpngpf.3, and png.5
2726 Version 1.5.0beta12 [March 9, 2010]
2727 Moved "#include png.h" inside pngpriv.h and removed "#include png.h" from
2728 the source files, along with "#define PNG_EXPOSE_INTERNAL_STRUCTURES"
2729 and "#define PNG_NO_PEDANTIC_WARNINGS" (John Bowler).
2730 Created new pngdebug.h and moved debug definitions there.
2732 Version 1.5.0beta13 [March 10, 2010]
2733 Protect pngstruct.h, pnginfo.h, and pngdebug.h from being included twice.
2734 Revise the "#ifdef" blocks in png_inflate() so it will compile when neither
2735 PNG_USER_CHUNK_MALLOC_MAX nor PNG_SET_CHUNK_MALLOC_LIMIT_SUPPORTED
2737 Removed unused png_measure_compressed_chunk() from pngpriv.h and libpngpf.3
2738 Moved the 'config.h' support from pngconf.h to pngpriv.h
2739 Removed PNGAPI from the png_longjmp_ptr typedef.
2740 Eliminated dependence of pngtest.c on the private pngdebug.h file.
2741 Make all png_debug macros into *unterminated* statements or
2742 expressions (i.e. a trailing ';' must always be added) and correct
2743 the format statements in various png_debug messages.
2745 Version 1.5.0beta14 [March 14, 2010]
2746 Removed direct access to png_ptr->io_ptr from the Windows code in pngtest.c
2747 Revised Makefile.am to account for recent additions and replacements.
2748 Corrected CE and OS/2 DEF files (scripts/png*def) for symbols removed and
2749 added ordinal numbers to the Windows DEF file and corrected the duplicated
2750 ordinal numbers on CE symbols that are commented out.
2751 Added back in export symbols that can be present in the Windows build but
2752 are disabled by default.
2753 PNG_EXPORT changed to include an 'ordinal' field for DEF file generation.
2754 PNG_CALLBACK added to make callback definitions uniform. PNGAPI split
2755 into PNGCAPI (base C form), PNGAPI (exports) and PNGCBAPI (callbacks),
2756 and appropriate changes made to all files. Cygwin builds re-hinged to
2757 allow procedure call standard changes and to remove the need for the DEF
2758 file (fixes build on Cygwin).
2759 Enabled 'attribute' warnings that are relevant to library APIs and callbacks.
2760 Changed rules for generation of the various symbol files and added a new
2761 rule for a DEF file (which is also added to the distribution).
2762 Updated the symbol file generation to stop it adding spurious spaces
2763 to EOL (coming from preprocessor macro expansion). Added a facility
2764 to join tokens in the output and rewrite *.dfn to use this.
2765 Eliminated scripts/*.def in favor of libpng.def; updated projects/visualc71
2766 and removed scripts/makefile.cygwin.
2767 Made PNG_BUILD_DLL safe: it can be set whenever a DLL is being built.
2768 Removed the include of sys/types.h - apparently unnecessary now on the
2769 platforms on which it happened (all but Mac OS and RISC OS).
2770 Moved the Mac OS test into pngpriv.h (the only place it is used.)
2772 Version 1.5.0beta15 [March 17, 2010]
2773 Added symbols.chk target to Makefile.am to validate the symbols in png.h
2774 against the new DEF file scripts/symbols.def.
2775 Changed the default DEF file back to pngwin.def.
2776 Removed makefile.mingw.
2777 Eliminated PNG_NO_EXTERN and PNG_ALL_EXTERN
2779 Version 1.5.0beta16 [April 1, 2010]
2780 Make png_text_struct independent of PNG_iTXt_SUPPORTED, so that
2781 fields are initialized in all configurations. The READ/WRITE
2782 macros (PNG_(READ|WRITE)_iTXt_SUPPORTED) still function as
2783 before to disable code to actually read or write iTXt chunks
2784 and iTXt_SUPPORTED can be used to detect presence of either
2785 read or write support (but it is probably better to check for
2786 the one actually required - read or write.)
2787 Combined multiple png_warning() calls for a single error.
2788 Restored the macro definition of png_check_sig().
2790 Version 1.5.0beta17 [April 17, 2010]
2791 Added some "(long)" typecasts to printf calls in png_handle_cHRM().
2792 Documented the fact that png_set_dither() was disabled since libpng-1.4.0.
2793 Reenabled png_set_dither() but renamed it to png_set_quantize() to reflect
2794 more accurately what it actually does. At the same time, renamed
2795 the PNG_DITHER_[RED,GREEN_BLUE]_BITS macros to
2796 PNG_QUANTIZE_[RED,GREEN,BLUE]_BITS.
2797 Added some "(long)" typecasts to printf calls in png_handle_cHRM().
2798 Freeze build-time only configuration in the build.
2799 In all prior versions of libpng most configuration options
2800 controlled by compiler #defines had to be repeated by the
2801 application code that used libpng. This patch changes this
2802 so that compilation options that can only be changed at build
2803 time are frozen in the build. Options that are compiler
2804 dependent (and those that are system dependent) are evaluated
2805 each time - pngconf.h holds these. Options that can be changed
2806 per-file in the application are in png.h. Frozen options are
2807 in the new installed header file pnglibconf.h (John Bowler)
2808 Removed the xcode project because it has not been updated to work
2810 Removed the ability to include optional pngusr.h
2812 Version 1.5.0beta18 [April 17, 2010]
2813 Restored the ability to include optional pngusr.h
2814 Moved replacements for png_error() and png_warning() from the
2815 contrib/pngminim project to pngerror.c, for use when warnings or
2816 errors are disabled via PNG_NO_WARN or PNG_NO_ERROR_TEXT, to avoid
2817 storing unneeded error/warning text.
2818 Updated contrib/pngminim project to work with the new pnglibconf.h
2819 Added some PNG_NO_* defines to contrib/pngminim/*/pngusr.h to save space.
2821 Version 1.5.0beta19 [April 24, 2010]
2822 Added PNG_{READ,WRITE}_INT_FUNCTIONS_SUPPORTED. This allows the functions
2823 to read and write ints to be disabled independently of PNG_USE_READ_MACROS,
2824 which allows libpng to be built with the functions even though the default
2825 is to use the macros - this allows applications to choose at app build
2826 time whether or not to use macros (previously impossible because the
2827 functions weren't in the default build.)
2828 Changed Windows calling convention back to __cdecl for API functions.
2829 For Windows/x86 platforms only:
2830 __stdcall is no longer needed for Visual Basic, so libpng-1.5.0 uses
2831 __cdecl throughout (both API functions and callbacks) on Windows/x86
2833 Replaced visualc6 and visualc71 projects with new vstudio project
2834 Relaxed the overly-restrictive permissions of some files.
2836 Version 1.5.0beta20 [April 24, 2010]
2837 Relaxed more overly-restrictive permissions of some files.
2839 Version 1.5.0beta21 [April 27, 2010]
2840 Removed some unwanted binary bytes and changed CRLF to NEWLINE in the new
2841 vstudio project files, and some trivial editing of some files in the
2843 Set PNG_NO_READ_BGR, PNG_NO_IO_STATE, and PNG_NO_TIME_RFC1123 in
2844 contrib/pngminim/decoder/pngusr.h to make a smaller decoder application.
2846 Version 1.5.0beta22 [April 28, 2010]
2847 Fixed dependencies of GET_INT_32 - it does not require READ_INT_FUNCTIONS
2848 because it has a macro equivalent.
2849 Improved the options.awk script; added an "everything off" option.
2850 Revised contrib/pngminim to use the "everything off" option in pngusr.dfa.
2852 Version 1.5.0beta23 [April 29, 2010]
2853 Corrected PNG_REMOVED macro to take five arguments.
2854 The macro was documented with two arguments (name,ordinal), however
2855 the symbol checking .dfn files assumed five arguments. The five
2856 argument form seems more useful so it is changed to that.
2857 Corrected PNG_UNKNOWN_CHUNKS_SUPPORTED to PNG_HANDLE_AS_UNKNOWN_SUPPORTED
2858 in gregbook/readpng2.c
2859 Corrected protection of png_get_user_transform_ptr. The API declaration in
2860 png.h is removed if both READ and WRITE USER_TRANSFORM are turned off
2861 but was left defined in pngtrans.c
2862 Added logunsupported=1 to cause pnglibconf.h to document disabled options.
2863 This makes the installed pnglibconf.h more readable but causes no
2864 other change. The intention is that users of libpng will find it
2865 easier to understand if an API they need is missing.
2866 Include png_reset_zstream() in png.c only when PNG_READ_SUPPORTED is defined.
2867 Removed dummy_inflate.c from contrib/pngminim/encoder
2868 Removed contrib/pngminim/*/gather.sh; gathering is now done in the makefile.
2870 Version 1.5.0beta24 [May 7, 2010]
2871 Use bitwise "&" instead of arithmetic mod in pngrutil.c calculation of the
2872 offset of the png_ptr->rowbuf pointer into png_ptr->big_row_buf.
2873 Added more blank lines for readability.
2875 Version 1.5.0beta25 [June 18, 2010]
2876 In pngpread.c: png_push_have_row() add check for new_row > height
2877 Removed the now-redundant check for out-of-bounds new_row from example.c
2879 Version 1.5.0beta26 [June 18, 2010]
2880 In pngpread.c: png_push_process_row() add check for too many rows.
2882 Version 1.5.0beta27 [June 18, 2010]
2883 Removed the check added in beta25 as it is now redundant.
2885 Version 1.5.0beta28 [June 20, 2010]
2886 Rewrote png_process_IDAT_data to consistently treat extra data as warnings
2887 and handle end conditions more cleanly.
2888 Removed the new (beta26) check in png_push_process_row().
2890 Version 1.5.0beta29 [June 21, 2010]
2891 Revised scripts/options.awk to work on Sunos (but still doesn't work)
2892 Added comment to options.awk and contrib/pngminim/*/makefile to try nawk.
2894 Version 1.5.0beta30 [June 22, 2010]
2895 Stop memory leak when reading a malformed sCAL chunk.
2897 Version 1.5.0beta31 [June 26, 2010]
2898 Revised pngpread.c patch of beta28 to avoid an endless loop.
2899 Removed some trailing blanks.
2901 Version 1.5.0beta32 [June 26, 2010]
2902 Removed leftover scripts/options.patch and scripts/options.rej
2904 Version 1.5.0beta33 [July 6, 3010]
2905 Made FIXED and FLOATING options consistent in the APIs they enable and
2906 disable. Corrected scripts/options.awk to handle both command line
2907 options and options specified in the .dfa files.
2908 Changed char *msg to PNG_CONST char *msg in pngrutil.c
2909 Make png_set_sRGB_gAMA_and_cHRM set values using either the fixed or
2910 floating point APIs, but not both.
2911 Reversed patch to remove error handler when the jmp_buf is stored in the
2912 main program structure, not the png_struct.
2913 The error handler is needed because the default handler in libpng will
2914 always use the jmp_buf in the library control structure; this is never
2915 set. The gregbook code is a useful example because, even though it
2916 uses setjmp/longjmp, it shows how error handling can be implemented
2917 using control mechanisms not directly supported by libpng. The
2918 technique will work correctly with mechanisms such as Microsoft
2919 Structure Exceptions or C++ exceptions (compiler willing - note that gcc
2920 does not by default support interworking of C and C++ error handling.)
2921 Reverted changes to call png_longjmp in contrib/gregbook where it is not
2922 appropriate. If mainprog->jmpbuf is used by setjmp, then png_longjmp
2924 Changed "extern PNG_EXPORT" to "PNG_EXPORT" in png.h (Jan Nijtmans)
2925 Changed "extern" to "PNG_EXTERN" in pngpriv.h (except for the 'extern "C" {')
2927 Version 1.5.0beta34 [July 12, 2010]
2928 Put #ifndef PNG_EXTERN, #endif around the define PNG_EXTERN in pngpriv.h
2930 Version 1.5.0beta35 [July 24, 2010]
2931 Removed some newly-added TAB characters.
2932 Added -DNO_PNG_SNPRINTF to CFLAGS in scripts/makefile.dj2
2933 Moved the definition of png_snprintf() outside of the enclosing
2934 #ifdef blocks in pngconf.h
2936 Version 1.5.0beta36 [July 29, 2010]
2937 Patches by John Bowler:
2938 Fixed point APIs are now supported throughout (no missing APIs).
2939 Internal fixed point arithmetic support exists for all internal floating
2941 sCAL validates the floating point strings it is passed.
2942 Safe, albeit rudimentary, Watcom support is provided by PNG_API_RULE==2
2943 Two new APIs exist to get the number of passes without turning on the
2944 PNG_INTERLACE transform and to get the number of rows in the current
2946 A new test program, pngvalid.c, validates the gamma code.
2947 Errors in the 16-bit gamma correction (overflows) have been corrected.
2948 cHRM chunk testing is done consistently (previously the floating point
2949 API bypassed it, because the test really didn't work on FP, now the test
2950 is performed on the actual values to be stored in the PNG file so it
2951 works in the FP case too.)
2952 Most floating point APIs now simply call the fixed point APIs after
2953 converting the values to the fixed point form used in the PNG file.
2954 The standard headers no longer include zlib.h, which is currently only
2955 required for pngstruct.h and can therefore be internal.
2956 Revised png_get_int_32 to undo the PNG two's complement representation of
2959 Version 1.5.0beta37 [July 30, 2010]
2960 Added a typecast in png_get_int_32() in png.h and pngrutil.h to avoid
2962 Replaced oFFs 0,0 with oFFs -10,20 in pngtest.png
2964 Version 1.5.0beta38 [July 31, 2010]
2965 Implemented remaining "_fixed" functions.
2966 Corrected a number of recently introduced warnings mostly resulting from
2967 safe but uncast assignments to shorter integers. Also added a zlib
2968 VStudio release library project because the latest zlib Official Windows
2969 build does not include such a thing.
2970 Revised png_get_int_16() to be similar to png_get_int_32().
2971 Restored projects/visualc71.
2973 Version 1.5.0beta39 [August 2, 2010]
2974 VisualC/GCC warning fixes, VisualC build fixes
2975 The changes include support for function attributes in VC in addition to
2976 those already present in GCC - necessary because without these some
2977 warnings are unavoidable. Fixes include signed/unsigned fixes in
2978 pngvalid and checks with gcc -Wall -Wextra -Wunused.
2979 VC requires function attributes on function definitions as well as
2980 declarations, PNG_FUNCTION has been added to enable this and the
2981 relevant function definitions changed.
2983 Version 1.5.0beta40 [August 6, 2010]
2984 Correct use of _WINDOWS_ in pngconf.h
2985 Removed png_mem_ #defines; they are no longer used.
2986 Added the sRGB chunk to pngtest.png
2988 Version 1.5.0beta41 [August 11, 2010]
2989 Added the cHRM chunk to pngtest.png
2990 Don't try to use version-script with cygwin/mingw.
2991 Revised contrib/gregbook to work under cygwin/mingw.
2993 Version 1.5.0beta42 [August 18, 2010]
2994 Add .dll.a to the list of extensions to be symlinked by Makefile.am (Yaakov)
2995 Made all API functions that have const arguments and constant string
2996 literal pointers declare them (John Bowler).
2998 Version 1.5.0beta43 [August 20, 2010]
2999 Removed spurious tabs, shorten long lines (no source change)
3000 Also added scripts/chkfmt to validate the format of all the files that can
3001 reasonably be validated (it is suggested to run "make distclean" before
3002 checking, because some machine generated files have long lines.)
3003 Reformatted the CHANGES file to be more consistent throughout.
3004 Made changes to address various issues identified by GCC, mostly
3005 signed/unsigned and shortening problems on assignment but also a few
3006 difficult to optimize (for GCC) loops.
3007 Fixed non-GCC fixed point builds. In png.c a declaration was misplaced
3008 in an earlier update. Fixed to declare the auto variables at the head.
3009 Use cexcept.h in pngvalid.c.
3011 Version 1.5.0beta44 [August 24, 2010]
3012 Updated CMakeLists.txt to use CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR variable; useful for
3013 installing libpng in /usr/lib64 (Funda Wang).
3014 Revised CMakeLists.txt to put the man pages in share/man/man* not man/man*
3015 Revised CMakeLists.txt to make symlinks instead of copies when installing.
3016 Changed PNG_LIB_NAME from pngNN to libpngNN in CMakeLists.txt (Philip Lowman)
3017 Implemented memory checks within pngvalid
3018 Reformatted/rearranged pngvalid.c to assist use of progressive reader.
3019 Check interlaced images in pngvalid
3020 Clarified pngusr.h comments in pnglibconf.dfa
3021 Simplified the pngvalid error-handling code now that cexcept.h is in place.
3022 Implemented progressive reader in pngvalid.c for standard tests
3023 Implemented progressive read in pngvalid.c gamma tests
3024 Turn on progressive reader in pngvalid.c by default and tidy code.
3026 Version 1.5.0beta45 [August 26, 2010]
3027 Added an explicit make step to projects/vstudio for pnglibconf.h
3028 Also corrected zlib.vcxproj into which Visual Studio had introduced
3029 what it calls an "authoring error". The change to make pnglibconf.h
3030 simply copies the file; in the future it may actually generate the
3031 file from scripts/pnglibconf.dfa as the other build systems do.
3032 Changed pngvalid to work when floating point APIs are disabled
3033 Renamed the prebuilt scripts/pnglibconf.h to scripts/pnglibconf.h.prebuilt
3034 Supply default values for PNG_USER_PRIVATEBUILD and PNG_USER_DLLFNAME_POSTFIX
3035 in pngpriv.h in case the user neglected to define them in their pngusr.h
3037 Version 1.5.0beta46 [August 28, 2010]
3038 Added new private header files to libpng_sources in CMakeLists.txt
3039 Added PNG_READ_16BIT, PNG_WRITE_16BIT, and PNG_16BIT options.
3040 Added reference to scripts/pnglibconf.h.prebuilt in the visualc71 project.
3042 Version 1.5.0beta47 [September 11, 2010]
3043 Fixed a number of problems with 64-bit compilation reported by Visual
3044 Studio 2010 (John Bowler).
3046 Version 1.5.0beta48 [October 4, 2010]
3047 Updated CMakeLists.txt (Philip Lowman).
3048 Revised autogen.sh to recognize and use $AUTOCONF, $AUTOMAKE, $AUTOHEADER,
3049 $AUTOPOINT, $ACLOCAL and $LIBTOOLIZE
3050 Fixed problem with symbols creation in Makefile.am which was assuming that
3051 all versions of ccp write to standard output by default (Martin Banky). The
3052 bug was introduced in libpng-1.2.9beta5.
3053 Removed unused mkinstalldirs.
3055 Version 1.5.0beta49 [October 8, 2010]
3056 Undid Makefile.am revision of 1.5.0beta48.
3058 Version 1.5.0beta50 [October 14, 2010]
3059 Revised Makefile.in to account for mkinstalldirs being removed.
3060 Added some "(unsigned long)" typecasts in printf statements in pngvalid.c.
3061 Suppressed a compiler warning in png_handle_sPLT().
3062 Check for out-of-range text compression mode in png_set_text().
3064 Version 1.5.0beta51 [October 15, 2010]
3065 Changed embedded dates to "(PENDING RELEASE) in beta releases (and future
3066 rc releases) to minimize the difference between releases.
3068 Version 1.5.0beta52 [October 16, 2010]
3069 Restored some of the embedded dates (in png.h, png.c, documentation, etc.)
3071 Version 1.5.0beta53 [October 18, 2010]
3072 Updated INSTALL to mention using "make maintainer-clean" and to remove
3073 obsolete statement about a custom ltmain.sh
3074 Disabled "color-tests" by default in Makefile.am so it will work with
3075 automake versions earlier than 1.11.1
3076 Use document name "libpng-manual.txt" instead of "libpng-<version>.txt"
3077 to simplify version differences.
3078 Removed obsolete remarks about setjmp handling from INSTALL.
3079 Revised and renamed the typedef in png.h and png.c that was designed
3080 to catch library and header mismatch.
3082 Version 1.5.0beta54 [November 10, 2010]
3083 Require 48 bytes, not 64 bytes, for big_row_buf in overflow checks.
3084 Used a consistent structure for the pngget.c functions.
3086 Version 1.5.0beta55 [November 21, 2010]
3087 Revised png_get_uint_32, png_get_int_32, png_get_uint_16 (Cosmin)
3088 Moved reading of file signature into png_read_sig (Cosmin)
3089 Fixed atomicity of chunk header serialization (Cosmin)
3090 Added test for io_state in pngtest.c (Cosmin)
3091 Added "#!/bin/sh" at the top of contrib/pngminim/*/gather.sh scripts.
3092 Changes to remove gcc warnings (John Bowler)
3093 Certain optional gcc warning flags resulted in warnings in libpng code.
3094 With these changes only -Wconversion and -Wcast-qual cannot be turned on.
3095 Changes are trivial rearrangements of code. -Wconversion is not possible
3096 for pngrutil.c (because of the widespread use of += et al on variables
3097 smaller than (int) or (unsigned int)) and -Wcast-qual is not possible
3098 with pngwio.c and pngwutil.c because the 'write' callback and zlib
3099 compression both fail to declare their input buffers with 'const'.
3101 Version 1.5.0beta56 [December 7, 2010]
3102 Added the private PNG_UNUSED() macro definition in pngpriv.h.
3103 Added some commentary about PNG_EXPORT in png.h and pngconf.h
3104 Revised PNG_EXPORT() macro and added PNG_EXPORTA() macro, with the
3105 objective of simplifying and improving the cosmetic appearance of png.h.
3106 Fixed some incorrect "=" macro names in pnglibconf.dfa
3107 Included documentation of changes in 1.5.0 from 1.4.x in libpng-manual.txt
3109 Version 1.5.0beta57 [December 9, 2010]
3110 Documented the pngvalid gamma error summary with additional comments and
3112 Improved missing symbol handling in checksym.awk; symbols missing in both
3113 the old and new files can now be optionally ignored, treated as errors
3115 Removed references to pngvcrd.c and pnggccrd.c from the vstudio project.
3116 Updated "libpng14" to "libpng15" in the visualc71 project.
3117 Enabled the strip16 tests in pngvalid.`
3118 Don't display test results (except PASS/FAIL) when running "make test".
3119 Instead put them in pngtest-log.txt
3120 Added "--with-zprefix=<string>" to configure.ac
3121 Updated the prebuilt configuration files to autoconf version 2.68
3123 Version 1.5.0beta58 [December 19, 2010]
3124 Fixed interlace image handling and add test cases (John Bowler)
3125 Fixed the clean rule in Makefile.am to remove pngtest-log.txt
3126 Made minor changes to work around warnings in gcc 3.4
3128 Version 1.5.0rc01 [December 27, 2010]
3131 Version 1.5.0rc02 [December 27, 2010]
3132 Eliminated references to the scripts/*.def files in project/visualc71.
3134 Version 1.5.0rc03 [December 28, 2010]
3135 Eliminated scripts/*.def and revised Makefile.am accordingly
3137 Version 1.5.0rc04 [December 29, 2010]
3138 Fixed bug in background transformation handling in pngrtran.c (it was
3139 looking for the flag in png_ptr->transformations instead of in
3140 png_ptr->flags) (David Raymond).
3142 Version 1.5.0rc05 [December 31, 2010]
3143 Fixed typo in a comment in CMakeLists.txt (libpng14 => libpng15) (Cosmin)
3145 Version 1.5.0rc06 [January 4, 2011]
3146 Changed the new configure option "zprefix=string" to "zlib-prefix=string"
3148 Version 1.5.0rc07 [January 4, 2011]
3149 Updated copyright year.
3151 Version 1.5.0 [January 6, 2011]
3154 version 1.5.1beta01 [January 8, 2011]
3155 Added description of png_set_crc_action() to the manual.
3156 Added a note in the manual that the type of the iCCP profile was changed
3157 from png_charpp to png_bytepp in png_get_iCCP(). This change happened
3158 in version 1.5.0beta36 but is not noted in the CHANGES. Similarly,
3159 it was changed from png_charpp to png_const_bytepp in png_set_iCCP().
3160 Ensure that png_rgb_to_gray ignores palette mapped images, if libpng
3161 internally happens to call it with one, and fixed a failure to handle
3162 palette mapped images correctly. This fixes CVE-2690.
3164 Version 1.5.1beta02 [January 14, 2011]
3165 Fixed a bug in handling of interlaced images (bero at arklinux.org).
3166 Updated CMakeLists.txt (Clifford Yapp)
3168 Version 1.5.1beta03 [January 14, 2011]
3169 Fixed typecasting of some png_debug() statements (Cosmin)
3171 Version 1.5.1beta04 [January 16, 2011]
3172 Updated documentation of png_set|get_tRNS() (Thomas Klausner).
3173 Mentioned in the documentation that applications must #include "zlib.h"
3174 if they need access to anything in zlib.h, and that a number of
3175 macros such as png_memset() are no longer accessible by applications.
3176 Corrected pngvalid gamma test "sample" function to access all of the color
3177 samples of each pixel, instead of sampling the red channel three times.
3178 Prefixed variable names index, div, exp, gamma with "png_" to avoid "shadow"
3179 warnings, and (mistakenly) changed png_exp() to exp().
3181 Version 1.5.1beta05 [January 16, 2011]
3182 Changed variable names png_index, png_div, png_exp, and png_gamma to
3183 char_index, divisor, exp_b10, and gamma_val, respectively, and
3184 changed exp() back to png_exp().
3186 Version 1.5.1beta06 [January 20, 2011]
3187 Prevent png_push_crc_skip() from hanging while reading an unknown chunk
3188 or an over-large compressed zTXt chunk with the progressive reader.
3189 Eliminated more GCC "shadow" warnings.
3190 Revised png_fixed() in png.c to avoid compiler warning about reaching the
3191 end without returning anything.
3193 Version 1.5.1beta07 [January 22, 2011]
3194 In the manual, describe the png_get_IHDR() arguments in the correct order.
3195 Added const_png_structp and const_png_infop types, and used them in
3196 prototypes for most png_get_*() functions.
3198 Version 1.5.1beta08 [January 23, 2011]
3199 Added png_get_io_chunk_type() and deprecated png_get_io_chunk_name()
3200 Added synopses for the IO_STATE functions and other missing synopses
3201 to the manual. Removed the synopses from libpngpf.3 because they
3202 were out of date and no longer useful. Better information can be
3203 obtained by reading the prototypes and comments in pngpriv.h
3204 Attempted to fix cpp on Solaris with S. Studio 12 cc, fix build
3205 Added a make macro DFNCPP that is a CPP that will accept the tokens in
3206 a .dfn file and adds configure stuff to test for such a CPP. ./configure
3207 should fail if one is not available.
3208 Corrected const_png_ in png.h to png_const_ to avoid polluting the namespace.
3209 Added png_get_current_row_number and png_get_current_pass_number for the
3210 benefit of the user transform callback.
3211 Added png_process_data_pause and png_process_data_skip for the benefit of
3212 progressive readers that need to stop data processing or want to optimize
3213 skipping of unread data (e.g., if the reader marks a chunk to be skipped.)
3215 Version 1.5.1beta09 [January 24, 2011]
3216 Enhanced pngvalid, corrected an error in gray_to_rgb, corrected doc error.
3217 pngvalid contains tests of transforms, which tests are currently disabled
3218 because they are incompletely tested. gray_to_rgb was failing to expand
3219 the bit depth for smaller bit depth images; this seems to be a long
3220 standing error and resulted, apparently, in invalid output
3221 (CVE-2011-0408, CERT VU#643140). The documentation did not accurately
3222 describe what libpng really does when converting RGB to gray.
3224 Version 1.5.1beta10 [January 27, 2010]
3225 Fixed incorrect examples of callback prototypes in the manual, that were
3226 introduced in libpng-1.0.0.
3227 In addition the order of the png_get_uint macros with respect to the
3228 relevant function definitions has been reversed. This helps the
3229 preprocessing of the symbol files be more robust. Furthermore, the
3230 symbol file preprocessing now uses -DPNG_NO_USE_READ_MACROS even when
3231 the library may actually be built with PNG_USE_READ_MACROS; this stops
3232 the read macros interfering with the symbol file format.
3233 Made the manual, synopses, and function prototypes use the function
3234 argument names file_gamma, int_file_gamma, and srgb_intent consistently.
3236 Version 1.5.1beta11 [January 28, 2011]
3237 Changed PNG_UNUSED from "param=param;" to "{if(param){}}".
3238 Corrected local variable type in new API png_process_data_skip()
3239 The type was self-evidently incorrect but only causes problems on 64-bit
3241 Added transform tests to pngvalid and simplified the arguments.
3243 Version 1.5.1rc01 [January 29, 2011]
3246 Version 1.5.1rc02 [January 31, 2011]
3247 Added a request in the manual that applications do not use "png_" or
3248 "PNG_" to begin any of their own symbols.
3249 Changed PNG_UNUSED to "(void)param;" and updated the commentary in pngpriv.h
3251 Version 1.5.1 [February 3, 2011]
3254 Version 1.5.2beta01 [February 13, 2011]
3255 More -Wshadow fixes for older gcc compilers. Older gcc versions apparently
3256 check formal parameters names in function declarations (as well as
3257 definitions) to see if they match a name in the global namespace.
3258 Revised PNG_EXPORTA macro to not use an empty parameter, to accommodate the
3259 old VisualC++ preprocessor.
3260 Turned on interlace handling in png_read_png().
3261 Fixed gcc pedantic warnings.
3262 Handle longjmp in Cygwin.
3263 Fixed png_get_current_row_number() in the interlaced case.
3264 Cleaned up ALPHA flags and transformations.
3265 Implemented expansion to 16 bits.
3267 Version 1.5.2beta02 [February 19, 2011]
3268 Fixed mistake in the descriptions of user read_transform and write_transform
3269 function prototypes in the manual. The row_info struct is png_row_infop.
3270 Reverted png_get_current_row_number() to previous (1.5.2beta01) behavior.
3271 Corrected png_get_current_row_number documentation
3272 Fixed the read/write row callback documentation.
3273 This documents the current behavior, where the callback is called after
3274 every row with information pertaining to the next row.
3276 Version 1.5.2beta03 [March 3, 2011]
3277 Fixed scripts/makefile.vcwin32
3278 Updated contrib/pngsuite/README to add the word "modify".
3279 Define PNG_ALLOCATED to blank when _MSC_VER<1300.
3281 Version 1.5.2rc01 [March 19, 2011]
3282 Define remaining attributes to blank when MSC_VER<1300.
3283 ifdef out mask arrays in pngread.c when interlacing is not supported.
3285 Version 1.5.2rc02 [March 22, 2011]
3286 Added a hint to try CPP=/bin/cpp if "cpp -E" fails in scripts/pnglibconf.mak
3287 and in contrib/pngminim/*/makefile, eg., on SunOS 5.10, and removed "strip"
3289 Fixed a bug (present since libpng-1.0.7) that makes png_handle_sPLT() fail
3290 to compile when PNG_NO_POINTER_INDEXING is defined (Chubanov Kirill)
3292 Version 1.5.2rc03 [March 24, 2011]
3293 Don't include standard header files in png.h while building the symbol table,
3294 to avoid cpp failure on SunOS (introduced PNG_BUILDING_SYMBOL_TABLE macro).
3296 Version 1.5.2 [March 31, 2011]
3299 Version 1.5.3beta01 [April 1, 2011]
3300 Re-initialize the zlib compressor before compressing non-IDAT chunks.
3301 Added API functions (png_set_text_compression_level() and four others) to
3302 set parameters for zlib compression of non-IDAT chunks.
3304 Version 1.5.3beta02 [April 3, 2011]
3305 Updated scripts/symbols.def with new API functions.
3306 Only compile the new zlib re-initializing code when text or iCCP is
3307 supported, using PNG_WRITE_COMPRESSED_TEXT_SUPPORTED macro.
3308 Improved the optimization of the zlib CMF byte (see libpng-1.2.6beta03).
3309 Optimize the zlib CMF byte in non-IDAT compressed chunks
3311 Version 1.5.3beta03 [April 16, 2011]
3312 Fixed gcc -ansi -pedantic compile. A strict ANSI system does not have
3313 snprintf, and the "__STRICT_ANSI__" detects that condition more reliably
3314 than __STDC__ (John Bowler).
3315 Removed the PNG_PTR_NORETURN attribute because it too dangerous. It tells
3316 the compiler that a user supplied callback (the error handler) does not
3317 return, yet there is no guarantee in practice that the application code
3318 will correctly implement the error handler because the compiler only
3319 issues a warning if there is a mistake (John Bowler).
3320 Removed the no-longer-used PNG_DEPSTRUCT macro.
3321 Updated the zlib version to 1.2.5 in the VStudio project.
3322 Fixed 64-bit builds where png_uint_32 is smaller than png_size_t in
3323 pngwutil.c (John Bowler).
3324 Fixed bug with stripping the filler or alpha channel when writing, that
3325 was introduced in libpng-1.5.2beta01 (bug report by Andrew Church).
3327 Version 1.5.3beta04 [April 27, 2011]
3328 Updated pngtest.png with the new zlib CMF optimization.
3329 Cleaned up conditional compilation code and of background/gamma handling
3330 Internal changes only except a new option to avoid compiling the
3331 png_build_grayscale_palette API (which is not used at all internally.)
3332 The main change is to move the transform tests (READ_TRANSFORMS,
3333 WRITE_TRANSFORMS) up one level to the caller of the APIs. This avoids
3334 calls to spurious functions if all transforms are disabled and slightly
3335 simplifies those functions. Pngvalid modified to handle this.
3336 A minor change is to stop the strip_16 and expand_16 interfaces from
3337 disabling each other; this allows the future alpha premultiplication
3338 code to use 16-bit intermediate values while still producing 8-bit output.
3339 png_do_background and png_do_gamma have been simplified to take a single
3340 pointer to the png_struct rather than pointers to every item required
3341 from the png_struct. This makes no practical difference to the internal
3343 A serious bug in the pngvalid internal routine 'standard_display_init' has
3344 been fixed - this failed to initialize the red channel and accidentally
3345 initialized the alpha channel twice.
3346 Changed png_struct jmp_buf member name from png_jmpbuf to tmp_jmpbuf to
3347 avoid a possible clash with the png_jmpbuf macro on some platforms.
3349 Version 1.5.3beta05 [May 6, 2011]
3350 Added the "_POSIX_SOURCE" feature test macro to ensure libpng sees the
3351 correct API. _POSIX_SOURCE is defined in pngpriv.h, pngtest.c and
3352 pngvalid.c to ensure that POSIX conformant systems disable non-POSIX APIs.
3353 Removed png_snprintf and added formatted warning messages. This change adds
3354 internal APIs to allow png_warning messages to have parameters without
3355 requiring the host OS to implement snprintf. As a side effect the
3356 dependency of the tIME-supporting RFC1132 code on stdio is removed and
3357 PNG_NO_WARNINGS does actually work now.
3358 Pass "" instead of '\0' to png_default_error() in png_err(). This mistake
3359 was introduced in libpng-1.2.20beta01. This fixes CVE-2011-2691.
3360 Added PNG_WRITE_OPTIMIZE_CMF_SUPPORTED macro to make the zlib "CMF" byte
3361 optimization configurable.
3362 IDAT compression failed if preceded by a compressed text chunk (bug
3363 introduced in libpng-1.5.3beta01-02). This was because the attempt to
3364 reset the zlib stream in png_write_IDAT happened after the first IDAT
3365 chunk had been deflated - much too late. In this change internal
3366 functions were added to claim/release the z_stream and, hopefully, make
3367 the code more robust. Also deflateEnd checking is added - previously
3368 libpng would ignore an error at the end of the stream.
3370 Version 1.5.3beta06 [May 8, 2011]
3371 Removed the -D_ALL_SOURCE from definitions for AIX in CMakeLists.txt
3372 Implemented premultiplied alpha support: png_set_alpha_mode API
3374 Version 1.5.3beta07 [May 11, 2011]
3375 Added expand_16 support to the high level interface.
3376 Added named value and 'flag' gamma support to png_set_gamma. Made a minor
3377 change from the previous (unreleased) ABI/API to hide the exact value used
3378 for Macs - it's not a good idea to embed this in the ABI!
3379 Moved macro definitions for PNG_HAVE_IHDR, PNG_HAVE_PLTE, and PNG_AFTER_IDAT
3380 from pngpriv.h to png.h because they must be visible to applications
3381 that call png_set_unknown_chunks().
3382 Check for up->location !PNG_AFTER_IDAT when writing unknown chunks
3385 Version 1.5.3beta08 [May 16, 2011]
3386 Improved "pngvalid --speed" to exclude more of pngvalid from the time.
3387 Documented png_set_alpha_mode(), other changes in libpng.3/libpng-manual.txt
3388 The cHRM chunk now sets the defaults for png_set_rgb_to_gray() (when negative
3389 parameters are supplied by the caller), while in the absence of cHRM
3390 sRGB/Rec 709 values are still used. This introduced a divide-by-zero
3391 bug in png_handle_cHRM().
3392 The bKGD chunk no longer overwrites the background value set by
3393 png_set_background(), allowing the latter to be used before the file
3394 header is read. It never performed any useful function to override
3396 Added memory overwrite and palette image checks to pngvalid.c
3397 Previously palette image code was poorly checked. Since the transformation
3398 code has a special palette path in most cases this was a severe weakness.
3399 Minor cleanup and some extra checking in pngrutil.c and pngrtran.c. When
3400 expanding an indexed image, always expand to RGBA if transparency is
3403 Version 1.5.3beta09 [May 17, 2011]
3404 Reversed earlier 1.5.3 change of transformation order; move png_expand_16
3405 back where it was. The change doesn't work because it requires 16-bit
3406 gamma tables when the code only generates 8-bit ones. This fails
3407 silently; the libpng code just doesn't do any gamma correction. Moving
3408 the tests back leaves the old, inaccurate, 8-bit gamma calculations, but
3409 these are clearly better than none!
3411 Version 1.5.3beta10 [May 20, 2011]
3413 png_set_background() and png_expand_16() did not work together correctly.
3414 This problem is present in 1.5.2; if png_set_background is called with
3415 need_expand false and the matching 16 bit color libpng erroneously just
3416 treats it as an 8-bit color because of where png_do_expand_16 is in the
3417 transform list. This simple fix reduces the supplied colour to 8-bits,
3418 so it gets smashed, but this is better than the current behavior.
3419 Added tests for expand16, more fixes for palette image tests to pngvalid.
3420 Corrects the code for palette image tests and disables attempts to
3421 validate palette colors.
3423 Version 1.5.3rc01 [June 3, 2011]
3426 Version 1.5.3rc02 [June 8, 2011]
3427 Fixed uninitialized memory read in png_format_buffer() (Bug report by
3428 Frank Busse, CVE-2011-2501, related to CVE-2004-0421).
3430 Version 1.5.3beta11 [June 11, 2011]
3431 Fixed png_handle_sCAL which is broken in 1.5. This fixes CVE 2011-2692.
3432 Added sCAL to pngtest.png
3433 Revised documentation about png_set_user_limits() to say that it also affects
3435 Revised handling of png_set_user_limits() so that it can increase the
3436 limit beyond the PNG_USER_WIDTH|HEIGHT_MAX; previously it could only
3438 Make the 16-to-8 scaling accurate. Dividing by 256 with no rounding is
3439 wrong (high by one) 25% of the time. Dividing by 257 with rounding is
3440 wrong in 128 out of 65536 cases. Getting the right answer all the time
3441 without division is easy.
3442 Added "_SUPPORTED" to the PNG_WRITE_CUSTOMIZE_ZTXT_COMPRESSION macro.
3443 Added projects/owatcom, an IDE project for OpenWatcom to replace
3444 scripts/makefile.watcom. This project works with OpenWatcom 1.9. The
3445 IDE autogenerates appropriate makefiles (libpng.mk) for batch processing.
3446 The project is configurable, unlike the Visual Studio project, so long
3447 as the developer has an awk.
3448 Changed png_set_gAMA to limit the gamma value range so that the inverse
3449 of the stored value cannot overflow the fixed point representation,
3450 and changed other things OpenWatcom warns about.
3451 Revised pngvalid.c to test PNG_ALPHA_MODE_SUPPORTED correctly. This allows
3452 pngvalid to build when ALPHA_MODE is not supported, which is required if
3453 it is to build on libpng 1.4.
3454 Removed string/memory macros that are no longer used and are not
3455 necessarily fully supportable, particularly png_strncpy and png_snprintf.
3456 Added log option to pngvalid.c and attempted to improve gamma messages.
3458 Version 1.5.3 [omitted]
3459 People found the presence of a beta release following an rc release
3460 to be confusing; therefore we bump the version to libpng-1.5.4beta01
3461 and there will be no libpng-1.5.3 release.
3463 Version 1.5.4beta01 [June 14, 2011]
3464 Made it possible to undefine PNG_READ_16_TO_8_ACCURATE_SCALE_SUPPORTED
3465 to get the same (inaccurate) output as libpng-1.5.2 and earlier.
3466 Moved definitions of PNG_HAVE_IHDR, PNG_AFTER_IDAT, and PNG_HAVE_PLTE
3467 outside of an unknown-chunk block in png.h because they are also
3468 needed for other uses.
3470 Version 1.5.4beta02 [June 14, 2011]
3471 Fixed and clarified LEGACY 16-to-8 scaling code.
3472 Added png_set_chop_16() API, to match inaccurate results from previous
3474 Removed the ACCURATE and LEGACY options (they are no longer useable)
3475 Use the old scaling method for background if png_set_chop_16() was
3477 Made png_set_chop_16() API removeable by disabling PNG_CHOP_16_TO_8_SUPPORTED
3479 Version 1.5.4beta03 [June 15, 2011]
3480 Fixed a problem in png_do_expand_palette() exposed by optimization in
3482 Also removed a spurious and confusing "trans" member ("trans") from png_info.
3483 The palette expand optimization prevented expansion to an intermediate RGBA
3484 form if tRNS was present but alpha was marked to be stripped; this exposed
3485 a check for tRNS in png_do_expand_palette() which is inconsistent with the
3486 code elsewhere in libpng.
3487 Correction to the expand_16 code; removed extra instance of
3488 png_set_scale_16_to_8 from pngpriv.h
3490 Version 1.5.4beta04 [June 16, 2011]
3491 Added a missing "#ifdef PNG_READ_BACKGROUND_SUPPORTED/#endif" in pngrtran.c
3492 Added PNG_TRANSFORM_CHOP_16 to the high-level read transforms.
3493 Made PNG_READ_16_TO_8_ACCURATE_SCALE configurable again. If this is
3494 not enabled, png_set_strip_16() and png_do_scale_16_to_8() aren't built.
3495 Revised contrib/visupng, gregbook, and pngminim to demonstrate chop_16_to_8
3497 Version 1.5.4beta05 [June 16, 2011]
3498 Renamed png_set_strip_16() to png_set_scale_16() and renamed
3499 png_set_chop_16() to png_set_strip(16) in an attempt to minimize the
3500 behavior changes between libpng14 and libpng15.
3502 Version 1.5.4beta06 [June 18, 2011]
3503 Fixed new bug that was causing both strip_16 and scale_16 to be applied.
3505 Version 1.5.4beta07 [June 19, 2011]
3506 Fixed pngvalid, simplified macros, added checking for 0 in sCAL.
3507 The ACCURATE scale macro is no longer defined in 1.5 - call the
3508 png_scale_16_to_8 API. Made sure that PNG_READ_16_TO_8 is still defined
3509 if the png_strip_16_to_8 API is present. png_check_fp_number now
3510 maintains some state so that positive, negative and zero values are
3511 identified. sCAL uses these to be strictly spec conformant.
3513 Version 1.5.4beta08 [June 23, 2011]
3514 Fixed pngvalid if ACCURATE_SCALE is defined.
3515 Updated scripts/pnglibconf.h.prebuilt.
3517 Version 1.5.4rc01 [June 30, 2011]
3518 Define PNG_ALLOCATED to "restrict" only if MSC_VER >= 1400.
3520 Version 1.5.4 [July 7, 2011]
3523 Version 1.5.5beta01 [July 13, 2011]
3524 Fixed some typos and made other minor changes in the manual.
3525 Updated contrib/pngminus/makefile.std (Samuli Souminen)
3527 Version 1.5.5beta02 [July 14, 2011]
3528 Revised Makefile.am and Makefile.in to look in the right directory for
3529 pnglibconf.h.prebuilt
3531 Version 1.5.5beta03 [July 27, 2011]
3532 Enabled compilation with g++ compiler. This compiler does not recognize
3533 the file extension, so it always compiles with C++ rules. Made minor
3534 changes to pngrutil.c to cast results where C++ expects it but C does not.
3535 Minor editing of libpng.3 and libpng-manual.txt.
3537 Version 1.5.5beta04 [July 29, 2011]
3538 Revised CMakeLists.txt (Clifford Yapp)
3539 Updated commentary about the png_rgb_to_gray() default coefficients
3540 in the manual and in pngrtran.c
3542 Version 1.5.5beta05 [August 17, 2011]
3543 Prevent unexpected API exports from non-libpng DLLs on Windows. The "_DLL"
3544 is removed from the test of whether a DLL is being built (this erroneously
3545 caused the libpng APIs to be marked as DLL exports in static builds under
3546 Microsoft Visual Studio). Almost all of the libpng building configuration
3547 is moved from pngconf.h to pngpriv.h, but PNG_DLL_EXPORT remains in
3548 pngconf.h, though, so that it is colocated with the import definition (it
3549 is no longer used anywhere in the installed headers). The VStudio project
3550 definitions have been cleaned up: "_USRDLL" has been removed from the
3551 static library builds (this was incorrect), and PNG_USE_DLL has been added
3552 to pngvalid to test the functionality (pngtest does not supply it,
3553 deliberately). The spurious "_EXPORTS" has been removed from the
3554 libpng build (all these errors were a result of copy/paste between project
3556 Added new types and internal functions for CIE RGB end point handling to
3557 pngpriv.h (functions yet to be implemented).
3559 Version 1.5.5beta06 [August 26, 2011]
3560 Ensure the CMAKE_LIBRARY_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY is set in CMakeLists.txt
3562 Fixes to rgb_to_gray and cHRM XYZ APIs (John Bowler):
3563 The rgb_to_gray code had errors when combined with gamma correction.
3564 Some pixels were treated as true grey when they weren't and such pixels
3565 and true grey ones were not gamma corrected (the original value of the
3566 red component was used instead). APIs to get and set cHRM using color
3567 space end points have been added and the rgb_to_gray code that defaults
3568 based on cHRM, and the divide-by-zero bug in png_handle_cHRM (CERT
3569 VU#477046, CVE-2011-3328, introduced in 1.5.4) have been corrected.
3570 A considerable number of tests has been added to pngvalid for the
3571 rgb_to_gray transform.
3572 Arithmetic errors in rgb_to_gray whereby the calculated gray value was
3573 truncated to the bit depth rather than rounded have been fixed except in
3574 the 8-bit non-gamma-corrected case (where consistency seems more important
3575 than correctness.) The code still has considerable inaccuracies in the
3576 8-bit case because 8-bit linear arithmetic is used.
3578 Version 1.5.5beta07 [September 7, 2011]
3579 Added "$(ARCH)" option to makefile.darwin
3580 Added SunOS support to configure.ac and Makefile.am
3581 Changed png_chunk_benign_error() to png_warning() in png.c, in
3582 png_XYZ_from_xy_checked().
3584 Version 1.5.5beta08 [September 10, 2011]
3585 Fixed 64-bit compilation errors (gcc). The errors fixed relate
3586 to conditions where types that are 32 bits in the GCC 32-bit
3587 world (uLong and png_size_t) become 64 bits in the 64-bit
3588 world. This produces potential truncation errors which the
3589 compiler correctly flags.
3590 Relocated new HAVE_SOLARIS_LD definition in configure.ac
3591 Constant changes for 64-bit compatibility (removal of L suffixes). The
3592 16-bit cases still use "L" as we don't have a 16-bit test system.
3594 Version 1.5.5rc01 [September 15, 2011]
3595 Removed "L" suffixes in pngpriv.h
3597 Version 1.5.5 [September 22, 2011]
3600 Version 1.5.6beta01 [September 22, 2011]
3601 Fixed some 64-bit type conversion warnings in pngrtran.c
3602 Moved row_info from png_struct to a local variable.
3603 The various interlace mask arrays have been made into arrays of
3604 bytes and made PNG_CONST and static (previously some arrays were
3605 marked PNG_CONST and some weren't).
3606 Additional checks have been added to the transform code to validate the
3607 pixel depths after the transforms on both read and write.
3608 Removed some redundant code from pngwrite.c, in png_destroy_write_struct().
3609 Changed chunk reading/writing code to use png_uint_32 instead of png_byte[4].
3610 This removes the need to allocate temporary strings for chunk names on
3611 the stack in the read/write code. Unknown chunk handling still uses the
3612 string form because this is exposed in the API.
3614 Version 1.5.6beta02 [September 26, 2011]
3615 Added a note in the manual the png_read_update_info() must be called only
3616 once with a particular info_ptr.
3617 Fixed a typo in the definition of the new PNG_STRING_FROM_CHUNK(s,c) macro.
3619 Version 1.5.6beta03 [September 28, 2011]
3620 Revised test-pngtest.sh to report FAIL when pngtest fails.
3621 Added "--strict" option to pngtest, to report FAIL when the failure is
3622 only because the resulting valid files are different.
3623 Revised CMakeLists.txt to work with mingw and removed some material from
3624 CMakeLists.txt that is no longer useful in libpng-1.5.
3626 Version 1.5.6beta04 [October 5, 2011]
3627 Fixed typo in Makefile.in and Makefile.am ("-M Wl" should be "-M -Wl")."
3629 Version 1.5.6beta05 [October 12, 2011]
3630 Speed up png_combine_row() for interlaced images. This reduces the generality
3631 of the code, allowing it to be optimized for Adam7 interlace. The masks
3632 passed to png_combine_row() are now generated internally, avoiding
3633 some code duplication and localizing the interlace handling somewhat.
3634 Align png_struct::row_buf - previously it was always unaligned, caused by
3635 a bug in the code that attempted to align it; the code needs to subtract
3636 one from the pointer to take account of the filter byte prepended to
3638 Optimized png_combine_row() when rows are aligned. This gains a small
3639 percentage for 16-bit and 32-bit pixels in the typical case where the
3640 output row buffers are appropriately aligned. The optimization was not
3641 previously possible because the png_struct buffer was always misaligned.
3642 Fixed bug in png_write_chunk_header() debug print, introduced in 1.5.6beta01.
3644 Version 1.5.6beta06 [October 17, 2011]
3645 Removed two redundant tests for uninitialized row.
3646 Fixed a relatively harmless memory overwrite in compressed text writing
3647 with a 1 byte zlib buffer.
3648 Add ability to call png_read_update_info multiple times to pngvalid.c.
3649 Fixes for multiple calls to png_read_update_info. These fixes attend to
3650 most of the errors revealed in pngvalid, however doing the gamma work
3651 twice results in inaccuracies that can't be easily fixed. There is now
3652 a warning in the code if this is going to happen.
3653 Turned on multiple png_read_update_info in pngvalid transform tests.
3654 Prevent libpng from overwriting unused bits at the end of the image when
3655 it is not byte aligned, while reading. Prior to libpng-1.5.6 libpng would
3656 overwrite the partial byte at the end of each row if the row width was not
3657 an exact multiple of 8 bits and the image is not interlaced.
3659 Version 1.5.6beta07 [October 21, 2011]
3660 Made png_ptr->prev_row an aligned pointer into png_ptr->big_prev_row
3663 Version 1.5.6rc01 [October 26, 2011]
3664 Changed misleading "Missing PLTE before cHRM" warning to "Out of place cHRM"
3666 Version 1.5.6rc02 [October 27, 2011]
3667 Added LSR() macro to defend against buggy compilers that evaluate non-taken
3668 code branches and complain about out-of-range shifts.
3670 Version 1.5.6rc03 [October 28, 2011]
3671 Renamed the LSR() macro to PNG_LSR() and added PNG_LSL() macro.
3672 Fixed compiler warnings with Intel and MSYS compilers. The logical shift
3673 fix for Microsoft Visual C is required by other compilers, so this
3674 enables that fix for all compilers when using compile-time constants.
3675 Under MSYS 'byte' is a name declared in a system header file, so we
3676 changed the name of a local variable to avoid the warnings that result.
3677 Added #define PNG_ALIGN_TYPE PNG_ALIGN_NONE to contrib/pngminim/*/pngusr.h
3679 Version 1.5.6 [November 3, 2011]
3682 Version 1.5.7beta01 [November 4, 2011]
3683 Added support for ARM processor, when decoding all PNG up-filtered rows
3684 and any other-filtered rows with 3 or 4 bytes per pixel (Mans Rullgard).
3685 Fixed bug in pngvalid on early allocation failure; fixed type cast in
3686 pngmem.c; pngvalid would attempt to call png_error() if the allocation
3687 of a png_struct or png_info failed. This would probably have led to a
3688 crash. The pngmem.c implementation of png_malloc() included a cast
3689 to png_size_t which would fail on large allocations on 16-bit systems.
3690 Fix for the preprocessor of the Intel C compiler. The preprocessor
3691 splits adjacent @ signs with a space; this changes the concatenation
3692 token from @-@-@ to PNG_JOIN; that should work with all compiler
3694 Paeth filter speed improvements from work by Siarhei Siamashka. This
3695 changes the 'Paeth' reconstruction function to improve the GCC code
3696 generation on x86. The changes are only part of the suggested ones;
3697 just the changes that definitely improve speed and remain simple.
3698 The changes also slightly increase the clarity of the code.
3700 Version 1.5.7beta02 [November 11, 2011]
3701 Check compression_type parameter in png_get_iCCP and remove spurious
3702 casts. The compression_type parameter is always assigned to, so must
3703 be non-NULL. The cast of the profile length potentially truncated the
3704 value unnecessarily on a 16-bit int system, so the cast of the (byte)
3705 compression type to (int) is specified by ANSI-C anyway.
3706 Fixed FP division by zero in pngvalid.c; the 'test_pixel' code left
3707 the sBIT fields in the test pixel as 0, which resulted in a floating
3708 point division by zero which was irrelevant but causes systems where
3709 FP exceptions cause a crash. Added code to pngvalid to turn on FP
3710 exceptions if the appropriate glibc support is there to ensure this is
3711 tested in the future.
3712 Updated scripts/pnglibconf.mak and scripts/makefile.std to handle the
3714 Added versioning to pnglibconf.h comments.
3715 Simplified read/write API initial version; basic read/write tested on
3716 a variety of images, limited documentation (in the header file.)
3717 Installed more accurate linear to sRGB conversion tables. The slightly
3718 modified tables reduce the number of 16-bit values that
3719 convert to an off-by-one 8-bit value. The "makesRGB.c" code that was used
3720 to generate the tables is now in a contrib/sRGBtables sub-directory.
3722 Version 1.5.7beta03 [November 17, 2011]
3723 Removed PNG_CONST from the sRGB table declarations in pngpriv.h and png.c
3724 Added run-time detection of NEON support.
3725 Added contrib/libtests; includes simplified API test and timing test and
3726 a color conversion utility for rapid checking of failed 'pngstest' results.
3727 Multiple transform bug fixes plus a work-round for double gamma correction.
3728 libpng does not support more than one transform that requires linear data
3729 at once - if this is tried typically the results is double gamma
3730 correction. Since the simplified APIs can need rgb to gray combined with
3731 a compose operation it is necessary to do one of these outside the main
3732 libpng transform code. This check-in also contains fixes to various bugs
3733 in the simplified APIs themselves and to some bugs in compose and rgb to
3734 gray (on palette) itself.
3735 Fixes for C++ compilation using g++ When libpng source is compiled
3736 using g++. The compiler imposes C++ rules on the C source; thus it
3737 is desirable to make the source work with either C or C++ rules
3738 without throwing away useful error information. This change adds
3739 png_voidcast to allow C semantic (void*) cases or the corresponding
3740 C++ static_cast operation, as appropriate.
3741 Added --noexecstack to assembler file compilation. GCC does not set
3742 this on assembler compilation, even though it does on C compilation.
3743 This creates security issues if assembler code is enabled; the
3744 work-around is to set it by default in the flags for $(CCAS)
3745 Work around compilers that don't support declaration of const data. Some
3746 compilers fault 'extern const' data declarations (because the data is
3747 not initialized); this turns on const-ness only for compilers where
3748 this is known to work.
3750 Version 1.5.7beta04 [November 17, 2011]
3751 Since the gcc driver does not recognize the --noexecstack flag, we must
3752 use the -Wa prefix to have it passed through to the assembler.
3753 Also removed a duplicate setting of this flag.
3754 Added files that were omitted from the libpng-1.5.7beta03 zip distribution.
3756 Version 1.5.7beta05 [November 25, 2011]
3757 Removed "zTXt" from warning in generic chunk decompression function.
3758 Validate time settings passed to png_set_tIME() and png_convert_to_rfc1123()
3759 (Frank Busse). Note: This prevented CVE-2015-7981 from affecting
3760 libpng-1.5.7 and later.
3761 Added MINGW support to CMakeLists.txt
3762 Reject invalid compression flag or method when reading the iTXt chunk.
3763 Backed out 'simplified' API changes. The API seems too complex and there
3764 is a lack of consensus or enthusiasm for the proposals. The API also
3765 reveals significant bugs inside libpng (double gamma correction and the
3766 known bug of being unable to retrieve a corrected palette). It seems
3767 better to wait until the bugs, at least, are corrected.
3768 Moved pngvalid.c into contrib/libtests
3769 Rebuilt Makefile.in, configure, etc., with autoconf-2.68
3771 Version 1.5.7rc01 [December 1, 2011]
3772 Replaced an "#if" with "#ifdef" in pngrtran.c
3773 Revised #if PNG_DO_BC block in png.c (use #ifdef and add #else)
3775 Version 1.5.7rc02 [December 5, 2011]
3776 Revised project files and contrib/pngvalid/pngvalid.c to account for
3777 the relocation of pngvalid into contrib/libtests.
3778 Revised pngconf.h to use " __declspec(restrict)" only when MSC_VER >= 1400,
3780 Put CRLF line endings in the owatcom project files.
3782 Version 1.5.7rc03 [December 7, 2011]
3783 Updated CMakeLists.txt to account for the relocation of pngvalid.c
3785 Version 1.5.7 [December 15, 2011]
3786 Minor fixes to pngvalid.c for gcc 4.6.2 compatibility to remove warnings
3787 reported by earlier versions.
3788 Fixed minor memset/sizeof errors in pngvalid.c.
3790 Version 1.6.0beta01 [December 15, 2011]
3791 Removed machine-generated configure files from the GIT repository (they will
3792 continue to appear in the tarball distributions and in the libpng15 and
3793 earlier GIT branches).
3794 Restored the new 'simplified' API, which was started in libpng-1.5.7beta02
3795 but later deleted from libpng-1.5.7beta05.
3796 Added example programs for the new 'simplified' API.
3797 Added ANSI-C (C90) headers and require them, and take advantage of the
3798 change. Also fixed some of the projects/* and contrib/* files that needed
3799 updates for libpng16 and the move of pngvalid.c.
3800 With this change the required ANSI-C header files are assumed to exist: the
3801 implementation must provide float.h, limits.h, stdarg.h and stddef.h and
3802 libpng relies on limits.h and stddef.h existing and behaving as defined
3803 (the other two required headers aren't used). Non-ANSI systems that don't
3804 have stddef.h or limits.h will have to provide an appropriate fake
3805 containing the relevant types and #defines.
3806 Dropped support for 16-bit platforms. The use of FAR/far has been eliminated
3807 and the definition of png_alloc_size_t is now controlled by a flag so
3808 that 'small size_t' systems can select it if necessary. Libpng 1.6 may
3809 not currently work on such systems -- it seems likely that it will
3810 ask 'malloc' for more than 65535 bytes with any image that has a
3811 sufficiently large row size (rather than simply failing to read such
3813 New tools directory containing tools used to generate libpng code.
3814 Fixed race conditions in parallel make builds. With higher degrees of
3815 parallelism during 'make' the use of the same temporary file names such
3816 as 'dfn*' can result in a race where a temporary file from one arm of the
3817 build is deleted or overwritten in another arm. This changes the
3818 temporary files for suffix rules to always use $* and ensures that the
3819 non-suffix rules use unique file names.
3821 Version 1.6.0beta02 [December 21, 2011]
3822 Correct configure builds where build and source directories are separate.
3823 The include path of 'config.h' was erroneously made relative in pngvalid.c
3826 Version 1.6.0beta03 [December 22, 2011]
3827 Start-up code size improvements, error handler flexibility. These changes
3828 alter how the tricky allocation of the initial png_struct and png_info
3829 structures are handled. png_info is now handled in pretty much the same
3830 way as everything else, except that the allocations handle NULL return
3831 silently. png_struct is changed in a similar way on allocation and on
3832 deallocation a 'safety' error handler is put in place (which should never
3833 be required). The error handler itself is changed to permit mismatches
3834 in the application and libpng error buffer size; however, this means a
3835 silent change to the API to return the jmp_buf if the size doesn't match
3836 the size from the libpng compilation; libpng now allocates the memory and
3837 this may fail. Overall these changes result in slight code size
3838 reductions; however, this is a reduction in code that is always executed
3839 so is particularly valuable. Overall on a 64-bit system the libpng DLL
3840 decreases in code size by 1733 bytes. pngerror.o increases in size by
3841 about 465 bytes because of the new functionality.
3842 Added png_convert_to_rfc1123_buffer() and deprecated png_convert_to_rfc1123()
3843 to avoid including a spurious buffer in the png_struct.
3845 Version 1.6.0beta04 [December 30, 2011]
3846 Regenerated configure scripts with automake-1.11.2
3847 Eliminated png_info_destroy(). It is now used only in png.c and only calls
3848 one other internal function and memset().
3849 Enabled png_get_sCAL_fixed() if floating point APIs are enabled. Previously
3850 it was disabled whenever internal fixed point arithmetic was selected,
3851 which meant it didn't exist even on systems where FP was available but not
3853 Added pngvalid.c compile time checks for const APIs.
3854 Implemented 'restrict' for png_info and png_struct. Because of the way
3855 libpng works both png_info and png_struct are always accessed via a
3856 single pointer. This means adding C99 'restrict' to the pointer gives
3857 the compiler some opportunity to optimize the code. This change allows
3859 Moved AC_MSG_CHECKING([if libraries can be versioned]) later to the proper
3860 location in configure.ac (Gilles Espinasse).
3861 Changed png_memcpy to C assignment where appropriate. Changed all those
3862 uses of png_memcpy that were doing a simple assignment to assignments
3863 (all those cases where the thing being copied is a non-array C L-value).
3864 Added some error checking to png_set_*() routines.
3865 Removed the reference to the non-exported function png_memcpy() from
3867 Fixed the Visual C 64-bit build - it requires jmp_buf to be aligned, but
3868 it had become misaligned.
3869 Revised contrib/pngminus/pnm2png.c to avoid warnings when png_uint_32
3870 and unsigned long are of different sizes.
3872 Version 1.6.0beta05 [January 15, 2012]
3873 Updated manual with description of the simplified API (copied from png.h)
3874 Fix bug in pngerror.c: some long warnings were being improperly truncated
3875 (CVE-2011-3464, bug introduced in libpng-1.5.3beta05).
3877 Version 1.6.0beta06 [January 24, 2012]
3878 Added palette support to the simplified APIs. This commit
3879 changes some of the macro definitions in png.h, app code
3880 may need corresponding changes.
3881 Increased the formatted warning buffer to 192 bytes.
3882 Added color-map support to simplified API. This is an initial version for
3883 review; the documentation has not yet been updated.
3884 Fixed Min/GW uninstall to remove libpng.dll.a
3886 Version 1.6.0beta07 [January 28, 2012]
3887 Eliminated Intel icc/icl compiler warnings. The Intel (GCC derived)
3888 compiler issues slightly different warnings from those issued by the
3889 current versions of GCC. This eliminates those warnings by
3890 adding/removing casts and small code rewrites.
3891 Updated configure.ac from autoupdate: added --enable-werror option.
3892 Also some layout regularization and removal of introduced tab characters
3893 (replaced with 3-character indentation). Obsolete macros identified by
3894 autoupdate have been removed; the replacements are all in 2.59 so
3895 the pre-req hasn't been changed. --enable-werror checks for support
3896 for -Werror (or the given argument) in the compiler. This mimics the
3897 gcc configure option by allowing -Werror to be turned on safely; without
3898 the option the tests written in configure itself fail compilation because
3899 they cause compiler warnings.
3900 Rewrote autogen.sh to run autoreconf instead of running tools one-by-one.
3901 Conditionalize the install rules for MINGW and CYGWIN in CMakeLists.txt and
3902 set CMAKE_LIBRARY_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY to "lib" on all platforms (C. Yapp).
3903 Freeze libtool files in the 'scripts' directory. This version of autogen.sh
3904 attempts to dissuade people from running it when it is not, or should not,
3905 be necessary. In fact, autogen.sh does not work when run in a libpng
3906 directory extracted from a tar distribution anymore. You must run it in
3907 a GIT clone instead.
3908 Added two images to contrib/pngsuite (1-bit and 2-bit transparent grayscale),
3909 and renamed three whose names were inconsistent with those in
3910 pngsuite/README.txt.
3912 Version 1.6.0beta08 [February 1, 2012]
3913 Fixed Image::colormap misalignment in pngstest.c
3914 Check libtool/libtoolize version number (2.4.2) in configure.ac
3915 Divide test-pngstest.sh into separate pngstest runs for basic and
3917 Moved automake options to AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE in configure.ac
3918 Added color-tests, silent-rules (Not yet implemented in Makefile.am) and
3919 version checking to configure.ac
3920 Improved pngstest speed by not doing redundant tests and add const to
3921 the background parameter of png_image_finish_read. The --background
3922 option is now done automagically only when required, so that command-line
3923 option no longer exists.
3924 Cleaned up pngpriv.h to consistently declare all functions and data.
3925 Also eliminated PNG_CONST_DATA, which is apparently not needed but we
3926 can't be sure until it is gone.
3927 Added symbol prefixing that allows all the libpng external symbols
3928 to be prefixed (suggested by Reuben Hawkins).
3929 Updated "ftbb*.png" list in the owatcom and vstudio projects.
3930 Fixed 'prefix' builds on clean systems. The generation of pngprefix.h
3931 should not require itself.
3932 Updated INSTALL to explain that autogen.sh must be run in a GIT clone,
3933 not in a libpng directory extracted from a tar distribution.
3935 Version 1.6.0beta09 [February 1, 2012]
3936 Reverted the prebuilt configure files to libpng-1.6.0beta05 condition.
3938 Version 1.6.0beta10 [February 3, 2012]
3939 Added Z_SOLO for zlib-1.2.6+ and correct pngstest tests
3940 Updated list of test images in CMakeLists.txt
3941 Updated the prebuilt configure files to current condition.
3942 Revised INSTALL information about autogen.sh; it works in tar distributions.
3944 Version 1.6.0beta11 [February 16, 2012]
3945 Fix character count in pngstest command in projects/owatcom/pngstest.tgt
3946 Revised test-pngstest.sh to report PASS/FAIL for each image.
3947 Updated documentation about the simplified API.
3948 Corrected estimate of error in libpng png_set_rgb_to_gray API. The API is
3949 extremely inaccurate for sRGB conversions because it uses an 8-bit
3950 intermediate linear value and it does not use the sRGB transform, so it
3951 suffers from the known instability in gamma transforms for values close
3952 to 0 (see Poynton). The net result is that the calculation has a maximum
3953 error of 14.99/255; 0.5/255^(1/2.2). pngstest now uses 15 for the
3954 permitted 8-bit error. This may still not be enough because of arithmetic
3956 Removed some unused arrays (with #ifdef) from png_read_push_finish_row().
3957 Fixed a memory overwrite bug in simplified read of RGB PNG with
3958 non-linear gamma Also bugs in the error checking in pngread.c and changed
3959 quite a lot of the checks in pngstest.c to be correct; either correctly
3960 written or not over-optimistic. The pngstest changes are insufficient to
3961 allow all possible RGB transforms to be passed; pngstest cmppixel needs
3962 to be rewritten to make it clearer which errors it allows and then changed
3963 to permit known inaccuracies.
3964 Removed tests for no-longer-used *_EMPTY_PLTE_SUPPORTED from pngstruct.h
3965 Fixed fixed/float API export conditionals. 1) If FIXED_POINT or
3966 FLOATING_POINT options were switched off, png.h ended up with lone ';'
3967 characters. This is not valid ANSI-C outside a function. The ';'
3968 characters have been moved inside the definition of PNG_FP_EXPORT and
3969 PNG_FIXED_EXPORT. 2) If either option was switched off, the declaration
3970 of the corresponding functions were completely omitted, even though some
3971 of them are still used internally. The result is still valid, but
3972 produces warnings from gcc with some warning options (including -Wall). The
3973 fix is to cause png.h to declare the functions with PNG_INTERNAL_FUNCTION
3974 when png.h is included from pngpriv.h.
3975 Check for invalid palette index while reading paletted PNG. When one is
3976 found, issue a warning and increase png_ptr->num_palette accordingly.
3977 Apps are responsible for checking to see if that happened.
3979 Version 1.6.0beta12 [February 18, 2012]
3980 Do not increase num_palette on invalid_index.
3981 Relocated check for invalid palette index to pngrtran.c, after unpacking
3982 the sub-8-bit pixels.
3983 Fixed CVE-2011-3026 buffer overrun bug. This bug was introduced when
3984 iCCP chunk support was added at libpng-1.0.6. Deal more correctly with the
3985 test on iCCP chunk length. Also removed spurious casts that may hide
3986 problems on 16-bit systems.
3988 Version 1.6.0beta13 [February 24, 2012]
3989 Eliminated redundant png_push_read_tEXt|zTXt|iTXt|unknown code from
3990 pngpread.c and use the sequential png_handle_tEXt, etc., in pngrutil.c;
3991 now that png_ptr->buffer is inaccessible to applications, the special
3992 handling is no longer useful.
3993 Added PNG_SAFE_LIMITS feature to pnglibconf.dfa, pngpriv.h, and new
3994 pngusr.dfa to reset the user limits to safe ones if PNG_SAFE_LIMITS is
3995 defined. To enable, use "CPPFLAGS=-DPNG_SAFE_LIMITS_SUPPORTED=1" on the
3996 configure command or put #define PNG_SAFE_LIMITS_SUPPORTED in
3997 pnglibconf.h.prebuilt and pnglibconf.h.
3999 Version 1.6.0beta14 [February 27, 2012]
4000 Added information about the new limits in the manual.
4003 Version 1.6.0beta15 [March 2, 2012]
4004 Removed unused "current_text" members of png_struct and the png_free()
4005 of png_ptr->current_text from pngread.c
4006 Rewrote pngstest.c for substantial speed improvement.
4007 Fixed transparent pixel and 16-bit rgb tests in pngstest and removed a
4008 spurious check in pngwrite.c
4009 Added PNG_IMAGE_FLAG_FAST for the benefit of applications that store
4010 intermediate files, or intermediate in-memory data, while processing
4011 image data with the simplified API. The option makes the files larger
4012 but faster to write and read. pngstest now uses this by default; this
4013 can be disabled with the --slow option.
4014 Improved pngstest fine tuning of error numbers, new test file generator.
4015 The generator generates images that test the full range of sample values,
4016 allow the error numbers in pngstest to be tuned and checked. makepng
4017 also allows generation of images with extra chunks, although this is
4018 still work-in-progress.
4019 Added check for invalid palette index while reading.
4020 Fixed some bugs in ICC profile writing. The code should now accept
4021 all potentially valid ICC profiles and reject obviously invalid ones.
4022 It now uses png_error() to do so rather than casually writing a PNG
4023 without the necessary color data.
4024 Removed whitespace from the end of lines in all source files and scripts.
4026 Version 1.6.0beta16 [March 6, 2012]
4027 Relocated palette-index checking function from pngrutil.c to pngtrans.c
4028 Added palette-index checking while writing.
4029 Changed png_inflate() and calling routines to avoid overflow problems.
4030 This is an intermediate check-in that solves the immediate problems and
4031 introduces one performance improvement (avoiding a copy via png_ptr->zbuf.)
4032 Further changes will be made to make ICC profile handling more secure.
4033 Fixed build warnings (MSVC, GCC, GCC v3). Cygwin GCC with default options
4034 declares 'index' as a global, causing a warning if it is used as a local
4035 variable. GCC 64-bit warns about assigning a (size_t) (unsigned 64-bit)
4036 to an (int) (signed 32-bit). MSVC, however, warns about using the
4037 unary '-' operator on an unsigned value (even though it is well defined
4038 by ANSI-C to be ~x+1). The padding calculation was changed to use a
4039 different method. Removed the tests on png_ptr->pass.
4040 Added contrib/libtests/tarith.c to test internal arithmetic functions from
4041 png.c. This is a libpng maintainer program used to validate changes to the
4042 internal arithmetic functions.
4043 Made read 'inflate' handling like write 'deflate' handling. The read
4044 code now claims and releases png_ptr->zstream, like the write code.
4045 The bug whereby the progressive reader failed to release the zstream
4046 is now fixed, all initialization is delayed, and the code checks for
4047 changed parameters on deflate rather than always calling
4048 deflatedEnd/deflateInit.
4049 Validate the zTXt strings in pngvalid.
4050 Added code to validate the windowBits value passed to deflateInit2().
4051 If the call to deflateInit2() is wrong a png_warning will be issued
4052 (in fact this is harmless, but the PNG data produced may be sub-optimal).
4054 Version 1.6.0beta17 [March 10, 2012]
4055 Fixed PNG_LIBPNG_BUILD_BASE_TYPE definition.
4056 Reject all iCCP chunks after the first, even if the first one is invalid.
4057 Deflate/inflate was reworked to move common zlib calls into single
4058 functions [rw]util.c. A new shared keyword check routine was also added
4059 and the 'zbuf' is no longer allocated on progressive read. It is now
4060 possible to call png_inflate() incrementally. A warning is no longer
4061 issued if the language tag or translated keyword in the iTXt chunk
4063 If benign errors are disabled use maximum window on ancillary inflate.
4064 This works round a bug introduced in 1.5.4 where compressed ancillary
4065 chunks could end up with a too-small windowBits value in the deflate
4068 Version 1.6.0beta18 [March 16, 2012]
4069 Issue a png_benign_error() instead of png_warning() about bad palette index.
4070 In pngtest, treat benign errors as errors if "-strict" is present.
4071 Fixed an off-by-one error in the palette index checking function.
4072 Fixed a compiler warning under Cygwin (Windows-7, 32-bit system)
4073 Revised example.c to put text strings in a temporary character array
4074 instead of directly assigning string constants to png_textp members.
4075 This avoids compiler warnings when -Wwrite-strings is enabled.
4076 Added output flushing to aid debugging under Visual Studio. Unfortunately
4077 this is necessary because the VS2010 output window otherwise simply loses
4078 the error messages on error (they weren't flushed to the window before
4079 the process exited, apparently!)
4080 Added configuration support for benign errors and changed the read
4081 default. Also changed some warnings in the iCCP and sRGB handling
4082 from to benign errors. Configuration now makes read benign
4083 errors warnings and write benign errors to errors by default (thus
4084 changing the behavior on read). The simplified API always forces
4085 read benign errors to warnings (regardless of the system default, unless
4086 this is disabled in which case the simplified API can't be built.)
4088 Version 1.6.0beta19 [March 18, 2012]
4089 Work around for duplicate row start calls; added warning messages.
4090 This turns on PNG_FLAG_DETECT_UNINITIALIZED to detect app code that
4091 fails to call one of the 'start' routines (not enabled in libpng-1.5
4092 because it is technically an API change, since it did normally work
4093 before.) It also makes duplicate calls to png_read_start_row (an
4094 internal function called at the start of the image read) benign, as
4095 they were before changes to use png_inflate_claim. Somehow webkit is
4096 causing this to happen; this is probably a mis-feature in the zlib
4097 changes so this commit is only a work-round.
4098 Removed erroneous setting of DETECT_UNINITIALIZED and added more
4099 checks. The code now does a png_error if an attempt is made to do the
4100 row initialization twice; this is an application error and it has
4101 serious consequences because the transform data in png_struct is
4102 changed by each call.
4103 Added application error reporting and added chunk names to read
4104 benign errors; also added --strict to pngstest - not enabled
4105 yet because a warning is produced.
4106 Avoid the double gamma correction warning in the simplified API.
4107 This allows the --strict option to pass in the pngstest checks
4109 Version 1.6.0beta20 [March 29, 2012]
4110 Changed chunk handler warnings into benign errors, incrementally load iCCP
4111 Added checksum-icc.c to contrib/tools
4112 Prevent PNG_EXPAND+PNG_SHIFT doing the shift twice.
4113 Recognize known sRGB ICC profiles while reading; prefer writing the
4114 iCCP profile over writing the sRGB chunk, controlled by the
4115 PNG_sRGB_PROFILE_CHECKS option.
4116 Revised png_set_text_2() to avoid potential memory corruption (fixes
4117 CVE-2011-3048, also known as CVE-2012-3425).
4119 Version 1.6.0beta21 [April 27, 2012]
4120 Revised scripts/makefile.darwin: use system zlib; remove quotes around
4121 architecture list; add missing ppc architecture; add architecture options
4122 to shared library link; don't try to create a shared lib based on missing
4124 Enable png_set_check_for_invalid_index() for both read and write.
4125 Removed #ifdef PNG_HANDLE_AS_UNKNOWN_SUPPORTED in pngpriv.h around
4126 declaration of png_handle_unknown().
4127 Added -lssp_nonshared in a comment in scripts/makefile.freebsd
4128 and changed deprecated NOOBJ and NOPROFILE to NO_OBJ and NO_PROFILE.
4130 Version 1.6.0beta22 [May 23, 2012]
4131 Removed need for -Wno-cast-align with clang. clang correctly warns on
4132 alignment increasing pointer casts when -Wcast-align is passed. This
4133 fixes the cases that clang warns about either by eliminating the
4134 casts from png_bytep to png_uint_16p (pngread.c), or, for pngrutil.c
4135 where the cast is previously verified or pngstest.c where it is OK, by
4136 introducing new png_aligncast macros to do the cast in a way that clang
4139 Version 1.6.0beta23 [June 6, 2012]
4140 Revised CMakeLists.txt to not attempt to make a symlink under mingw.
4141 Made fixes for new optimization warnings from gcc 4.7.0. The compiler
4142 performs an optimization which is safe; however it then warns about it.
4143 Changing the type of 'palette_number' in pngvalid.c removes the warning.
4144 Do not depend upon a GCC feature macro being available for use in generating
4145 the linker mapfile symbol prefix.
4146 Improved performance of new do_check_palette_indexes() function (only
4147 update the value when it actually increases, move test for whether
4148 the check is wanted out of the function.
4150 Version 1.6.0beta24 [June 7, 2012]
4151 Don't check palette indexes if num_palette is 0 (as it can be in MNG files).
4153 Version 1.6.0beta25 [June 16, 2012]
4154 Revised png_set_keep_unknown_chunks() so num_chunks < 0 means ignore all
4155 unknown chunks and all known chunks except for IHDR, PLTE, tRNS, IDAT,
4156 and IEND. Previously it only meant ignore all unknown chunks, the
4157 same as num_chunks == 0. Revised png_image_skip_unused_chunks() to
4158 provide a list of chunks to be processed instead of a list of chunks to
4159 ignore. Revised contrib/gregbook/readpng2.c accordingly.
4161 Version 1.6.0beta26 [July 10, 2012]
4162 Removed scripts/makefile.cegcc from the *.zip and *.7z distributions; it
4163 depends on configure, which is not included in those archives.
4164 Moved scripts/chkfmt to contrib/tools.
4165 Changed "a+w" to "u+w" in Makefile.in to fix CVE-2012-3386.
4167 Version 1.6.0beta27 [August 11, 2012]
4168 Do not compile PNG_DEPRECATED, PNG_ALLOC and PNG_PRIVATE when __GNUC__ < 3.
4169 Do not use __restrict when GNUC is <= 3.1
4170 Removed references to png_zalloc() and png_zfree() from the manual.
4171 Fixed configurations where floating point is completely disabled. Because
4172 of the changes to support symbol prefixing PNG_INTERNAL_FUNCTION declares
4173 floating point APIs during libpng builds even if they are completely
4174 disabled. This requires the png floating point types (png_double*) to be
4175 declared even though the functions are never actually defined. This
4176 change provides a dummy definition so that the declarations work, yet any
4177 implementation will fail to compile because of an incomplete type.
4178 Re-eliminated the use of strcpy() in pngtest.c. An unnecessary use of
4179 strcpy() was accidentally re-introduced in libpng16; this change replaces
4181 Eliminated use of png_sizeof(); use sizeof() instead.
4182 Use a consistent style for (sizeof type) and (sizeof (array))
4183 Cleanup of png_set_filler(). This function does very different things on
4184 read and write. In libpng 1.6 the two cases can be distinguished and
4185 considerable code cleanup, and extra error checking, is possible. This
4186 makes calls on the write side that have no effect be ignored with a
4187 png_app_error(), which can be disabled in the app using
4188 png_set_benign_errors(), and removes the spurious use of usr_channels
4190 Insist on autotools 1.12.1 for git builds because there are security issues
4191 with 1.12 and insisting on anything less would allow 1.12 to be used.
4192 Removed info_ptr->signature[8] from WRITE-only builds.
4193 Add some conditions for compiling png_fixed(). This is a small function
4194 but it requires "-lm" on some platforms.
4195 Cause pngtest --strict to fail on any warning from libpng (not just errors)
4196 and cause it not to fail at the comparison step if libpng lacks support
4197 for writing chunks that it reads from the input (currently only implemented
4198 for compressed text chunks).
4199 Make all three "make check" test programs work without READ or WRITE support.
4200 Now "make check" will succeed even if libpng is compiled with -DPNG_NO_READ
4201 or -DPNG_NO_WRITE. The tests performed are reduced, but the basic reading
4202 and writing of a PNG file is always tested by one or more of the tests.
4203 Consistently use strlen(), memset(), memcpy(), and memcmp() instead of the
4204 png_strlen(), png_memset(), png_memcpy(), and png_memcmp() macros.
4205 Removed the png_sizeof(), png_strlen(), png_memset(), png_memcpy(), and
4206 png_memcmp() macros.
4207 Work around gcc 3.x and Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 complaints. Both object
4208 to the split initialization of num_chunks.
4210 Version 1.6.0beta28 [August 29, 2012]
4211 Unknown handling fixes and clean up. This adds more correct option
4212 control of the unknown handling, corrects the pre-existing bug where
4213 the per-chunk 'keep' setting is ignored and makes it possible to skip
4214 IDAT chunks in the sequential reader (broken in earlier 1.6 versions).
4215 There is a new test program, test-unknown.c, which is a work in progress
4216 (not currently part of the test suite). Comments in the header files now
4217 explain how the unknown handling works.
4218 Allow fine grain control of unknown chunk APIs. This change allows
4219 png_set_keep_unknown_chunks() to be turned off if not required and causes
4220 both read and write to behave appropriately (on read this is only possible
4221 if the user callback is used to handle unknown chunks). The change
4222 also removes the support for storing unknown chunks in the info_struct
4223 if the only unknown handling enabled is via the callback, allowing libpng
4224 to be configured with callback reading and none of the unnecessary code.
4225 Corrected fix for unknown handling in pngtest. This reinstates the
4226 libpng handling of unknown chunks other than vpAg and sTER (including
4227 unsafe-to-copy chunks which were dropped before) and eliminates the
4228 repositioning of vpAg and sTER in pngtest.png by changing pngtest.png
4229 (so the chunks are where libpng would put them).
4230 Added "tunknown" test and corrected a logic error in png_handle_unknown()
4231 when SAVE support is absent. Moved the shell test scripts for
4232 contrib/libtests from the libpng top directory to contrib/libtests.
4233 png_handle_unknown() must always read or skip the chunk, if
4234 SAVE_UNKNOWN_CHUNKS is turned off *and* the application does not set
4235 a user callback an unknown chunk will not be read, leading to a read
4236 error, which was revealed by the "tunknown" test.
4237 Cleaned up and corrected ICC profile handling.
4238 contrib/libtests/makepng: corrected 'rgb' and 'gray' cases. profile_error
4239 messages could be truncated; made a correct buffer size calculation and
4240 adjusted pngerror.c appropriately. png_icc_check_* checking improved;
4241 changed the functions to receive the correct color type of the PNG on read
4242 or write and check that it matches the color space of the profile (despite
4243 what the comments said before, there is danger in assuming the app will
4244 cope correctly with an RGB profile on a grayscale image and, since it
4245 violates the PNG spec, allowing it is certain to produce inconsistent
4246 app behavior and might even cause app crashes.) Check that profiles
4247 contain the tags needed to process the PNG (tags all required by the ICC
4248 spec). Removed unused PNG_STATIC from pngpriv.h.
4250 Version 1.6.0beta29 [September 4, 2012]
4251 Fixed the simplified API example programs to add the *colormap parameter
4252 to several of he API and improved the error message if the version field
4254 Added contrib/examples/* to the *.zip and *.7z distributions.
4255 Updated simplified API synopses and description of the png_image structure
4257 Made makepng and pngtest produce identical PNGs, add "--relaxed" option
4258 to pngtest. The "--relaxed" option turns off the benign errors that are
4259 enabled by default in pre-RC builds. makepng can now write ICC profiles
4260 where the length has not been extended to a multiple of 4, and pngtest
4261 now intercepts all libpng errors, allowing the previously-introduced
4262 "--strict test" on no warnings to actually work.
4263 Improved ICC profile handling including cHRM chunk generation and fixed
4264 Cygwin+MSVC build errors. The ICC profile handling now includes more
4265 checking. Several errors that caused rejection of the profile are now
4266 handled with a warning in such a way that the invalid profiles will be
4267 read by default in release (but not pre-RC) builds but will not be
4268 written by default. The easy part of handling the cHRM chunk is written,
4269 where the ICC profile contains the required data. The more difficult
4270 part plus guessing a gAMA value requires code to pass selected RGB values
4271 through the profile.
4273 Version 1.6.0beta30 [October 24, 2012]
4274 Changed ICC profile matrix/vector types to not depend on array type rules.
4275 By the ANSI-C standard the new types should be identical to the previous
4276 versions, and all known versions of gcc tested with the previous versions
4277 except for GCC-4.2.1 work with this version. The change makes the ANSI-C
4278 rule that const applied to an array of elements applies instead to the
4279 elements in the array moot by explicitly applying const to the base
4280 elements of the png_icc_matrix and png_icc_vector types. The accidental
4281 (harmless) 'const' previously applied to the parameters of two of the
4282 functions have also been removed.
4283 Added a work around for GCC 4.2 optimization bug.
4284 Marked the broken (bad white point) original HP sRGB profiles correctly and
4286 Added -DZ_SOLO to contrib/pngminim/*/makefile to work with zlib-1.2.7
4287 Use /MDd for vstudio debug builds. Also added pngunkown to the vstudio
4288 builds, fixed build errors and corrected a minor exit code error in
4289 pngvalid if the 'touch' file name is invalid.
4290 Add updated WARNING file to projects/vstudio from libpng 1.5/vstudio
4291 Fixed build when using #define PNG_NO_READ_GAMMA in png_do_compose() in
4292 pngrtran.c (Domani Hannes).
4294 Version 1.6.0beta31 [November 1, 2012]
4295 Undid the erroneous change to vstudio/pngvalid build in libpng-1.6.0beta30.
4296 Made pngvalid so that it will build outside the libpng source tree.
4297 Made builds -DPNG_NO_READ_GAMMA compile (the unit tests still fail).
4298 Made PNG_NO_READ_GAMMA switch off interfaces that depend on READ_GAMMA.
4299 Prior to 1.6.0 switching off READ_GAMMA did unpredictable things to the
4300 interfaces that use it (specifically, png_do_background in 1.4 would
4301 simply display composite for grayscale images but do composition
4302 with the incorrect arithmetic for color ones). In 1.6 the semantic
4303 of -DPNG_NO_READ_GAMMA is changed to simply disable any interface that
4304 depends on it; this obliges people who set it to consider whether they
4305 really want it off if they happen to use any of the interfaces in
4306 question (typically most users who disable it won't).
4307 Fixed GUIDs in projects/vstudio. Some were duplicated or missing,
4308 resulting in VS2010 having to update the files.
4309 Removed non-working ICC profile support code that was mostly added to
4310 libpng-1.6.0beta29 and beta30. There was too much code for too little
4311 gain; implementing full ICC color correction may be desirable but is left
4314 Version 1.6.0beta32 [November 25, 2012]
4315 Fixed an intermittent SEGV in pngstest due to an uninitialized array element.
4316 Added the ability for contrib/libtests/makepng.c to make a PNG with just one
4317 color. This is useful for debugging pngstest color inaccuracy reports.
4318 Fixed error checking in the simplified write API (Olaf van der Spek)
4319 Made png_user_version_check() ok to use with libpng version 1.10.x and later.
4321 Version 1.6.0beta33 [December 15, 2012]
4322 Fixed typo in png.c (PNG_SET_CHUNK_MALLOC_MAX should be PNG_CHUNK_MALLOC_MAX)
4323 that causes the MALLOC_MAX limit not to work (John Bowler)
4324 Change png_warning() to png_app_error() in pngwrite.c and comment the
4325 fall-through condition.
4326 Change png_warning() to png_app_warning() in png_write_tRNS().
4327 Rearranged the ARM-NEON optimizations: Isolated the machine specific code
4328 to the hardware subdirectory and added comments to pngrutil.c so that
4329 implementors of other optimizations know what to do.
4330 Fixed cases of unquoted DESTDIR in Makefile.am
4331 Rebuilt Makefile.in, etc., with autoconf-2.69 and automake-1.12.5.
4333 Version 1.6.0beta34 [December 19, 2012]
4334 Cleaned up whitespace in the synopsis portion of the manpage "libpng.3"
4335 Disassembled the version number in scripts/options.awk (necessary for
4338 Version 1.6.0beta35 [December 23, 2012]
4339 Made default Zlib compression settings be configurable. This adds #defines to
4340 pnglibconf.h to control the defaults.
4341 Fixed Windows build issues, enabled ARM compilation. Various warnings issued
4342 by earlier versions of GCC fixed for Cygwin and Min/GW (which both use old
4343 GCCs.) ARM support is enabled by default in zlib.props (unsupported by
4344 Microsoft) and ARM compilation is made possible by deleting the check for
4345 x86. The test programs cannot be run because they are not signed.
4347 Version 1.6.0beta36 [January 2, 2013]
4348 Discontinued distributing libpng-1.x.x.tar.bz2.
4349 Discontinued distributing libpng-1.7.0-1.6.0-diff.txt and similar.
4350 Rebuilt configure with autoconf-2.69 (inadvertently not done in beta33)
4351 Fixed 'make distcheck' on SUN OS - libpng.so was not being removed
4353 Version 1.6.0beta37 [January 10, 2013]
4354 Fixed conceivable but difficult to repro overflow. Also added two test
4355 programs to generate and test a PNG which should have the problem.
4357 Version 1.6.0beta39 [January 19, 2013]
4358 Again corrected attempt at overflow detection in png_set_unknown_chunks()
4359 (CVE-2013-7353). Added overflow detection in png_set_sPLT() and
4360 png_set_text_2() (CVE-2013-7354).
4362 Version 1.6.0beta40 [January 20, 2013]
4363 Use consistent handling of overflows in text, sPLT and unknown png_set_* APIs
4365 Version 1.6.0rc01 [January 26, 2013]
4368 Version 1.6.0rc02 [February 4, 2013]
4369 Added png_get_palette_max() function.
4371 Version 1.6.0rc03 [February 5, 2013]
4372 Fixed the png_get_palette_max API.
4374 Version 1.6.0rc04 [February 7, 2013]
4375 Turn serial tests back on (recently turned off by autotools upgrade).
4377 Version 1.6.0rc05 [February 8, 2013]
4378 Update manual about png_get_palette_max().
4380 Version 1.6.0rc06 [February 9, 2013]
4381 Fixed missing dependency in --prefix builds The intermediate
4382 internal 'prefix.h' file can only be generated correctly after
4383 pnglibconf.h, however the dependency was not in Makefile.am. The
4384 symptoms are unpredictable depending on the order make chooses to
4385 build pngprefix.h and pnglibconf.h, often the error goes unnoticed
4386 because there is a system pnglibconf.h to use instead.
4388 Version 1.6.0rc07 [February 10, 2013]
4389 Enclosed the new png_get_palette_max in #ifdef PNG_GET_PALETTE_MAX_SUPPORTED
4390 block, and revised pnglibconf.h and pnglibconf.h.prebuilt accordingly.
4392 Version 1.6.0rc08 [February 10, 2013]
4393 Fix typo in png.h #ifdef
4395 Version 1.6.0 [February 14, 2013]
4398 Version 1.6.1beta01 [February 16, 2013]
4399 Made symbol prefixing work with the ARM neon optimizations. Also allow
4400 pngpriv.h to be included for preprocessor definitions only, so it can
4401 be used in non-C/C++ files. Back ported from libpng 1.7.
4402 Made sRGB check numbers consistent.
4403 Ported libpng 1.5 options.awk/dfn file handling to 1.6, fixed one bug.
4404 Removed cc -E workround, corrected png_get_palette_max API Tested on
4405 SUN OS cc 5.9, which demonstrates the tokenization problem previously
4406 avoided by using /lib/cpp. Since all .dfn output is now protected in
4407 double quotes unless it is to be macro substituted the fix should
4409 Enabled parallel tests - back ported from libpng-1.7.
4410 scripts/pnglibconf.dfa formatting improvements back ported from libpng17.
4411 Fixed a race condition in the creation of the build 'scripts' directory
4412 while building with a parallel make.
4413 Use approved/supported Android method to check for NEON, use Linux/POSIX
4414 1003.1 API to check /proc/self/auxv avoiding buffer allocation and other
4415 library calls (ported from libpng15).
4417 Version 1.6.1beta02 [February 19, 2013]
4418 Use parentheses more consistently in "#if defined(MACRO)" tests.
4420 Reenabled code to allow zero length PLTE chunks for MNG.
4422 Version 1.6.1beta03 [February 22, 2013]
4423 Fixed ALIGNED_MEMORY support.
4424 Added a new configure option:
4425 --enable-arm-neon=always will stop the run-time checks. New checks
4426 within arm/arm_init.c will cause the code not to be compiled unless
4427 __ARM_NEON__ is set. This should make it fail safe (if someone asks
4428 for it on then the build will fail if it can't be done.)
4429 Updated the INSTALL document.
4431 Version 1.6.1beta04 [February 27, 2013]
4432 Revised INSTALL to recommend using CPPFLAGS instead of INCLUDES.
4433 Revised scripts/makefile.freebsd to respect ZLIBLIB and ZLIBINC.
4434 Revised scripts/dfn.awk to work with the buggy MSYS awk that has trouble
4435 with CRLF line endings.
4437 Version 1.6.1beta05 [March 1, 2013]
4438 Avoid a possible memory leak in contrib/gregbook/readpng.c
4440 Version 1.6.1beta06 [March 4, 2013]
4441 Better documentation of unknown handling API interactions.
4442 Corrected Android builds and corrected libpng.vers with symbol
4443 prefixing. It also makes those tests compile and link on Android.
4444 Added an API png_set_option() to set optimization options externally,
4445 providing an alternative and general solution for the non-portable
4446 run-time tests used by the ARM Neon code, using the PNG_ARM_NEON option.
4447 The order of settings vs options in pnglibconf.h is reversed to allow
4448 settings to depend on options and options can now set (or override) the
4449 defaults for settings.
4451 Version 1.6.1beta07 [March 7, 2013]
4452 Corrected simplified API default gamma for color-mapped output, added
4453 a flag to change default. In 1.6.0 when the simplified API was used
4454 to produce color-mapped output from an input image with no gamma
4455 information the gamma assumed for the input could be different from
4456 that assumed for non-color-mapped output. In particular 16-bit depth
4457 input files were assumed to be sRGB encoded, whereas in the 'direct'
4458 case they were assumed to have linear data. This was an error. The
4459 fix makes the simplified API treat all input files the same way and
4460 adds a new flag to the png_image::flags member to allow the
4461 application/user to specify that 16-bit files contain sRGB data
4462 rather than the default linear.
4463 Fixed bugs in the pngpixel and makepng test programs.
4465 Version 1.6.1beta08 [March 7, 2013]
4466 Fixed CMakelists.txt to allow building a single variant of the library
4468 Introduced a PNG_LIB_TARGETS variable that lists all activated library
4469 targets. It is an error if this variable ends up empty, ie. you have
4470 to build at least one library variant.
4471 Made the *_COPY targets only depend on library targets actually being build.
4472 Use PNG_LIB_TARGETS to unify a code path.
4473 Changed the CREATE_SYMLINK macro to expect the full path to a file as the
4474 first argument. When symlinking the filename component of that path is
4475 determined and used as the link target.
4476 Use copy_if_different in the CREATE_SYMLINK macro.
4478 Version 1.6.1beta09 [March 13, 2013]
4479 Eliminated two warnings from the Intel C compiler. The warnings are
4480 technically valid, although a reasonable treatment of division would
4481 show it to be incorrect.
4483 Version 1.6.1rc01 [March 21, 2013]
4486 Version 1.6.1 [March 28, 2013]
4489 Version 1.6.2beta01 [April 14, 2013]
4490 Updated documentation of 1.5.x to 1.6.x changes in iCCP chunk handling.
4491 Fixed incorrect warning of excess deflate data. End condition - the
4492 warning would be produced if the end of the deflate stream wasn't read
4493 in the last row. The warning is harmless.
4494 Corrected the test on user transform changes on read. It was in the
4495 png_set of the transform function, but that doesn't matter unless the
4496 transform function changes the rowbuf size, and that is only valid if
4497 transform_info is called.
4498 Corrected a misplaced closing bracket in contrib/libtests/pngvalid.c
4500 Corrected length written to uncompressed iTXt chunks (Samuli Suominen).
4501 Bug was introduced in libpng-1.6.0.
4503 Version 1.6.2rc01 [April 18, 2013]
4504 Added contrib/tools/fixitxt.c, to repair the erroneous iTXt chunk length
4505 written by libpng-1.6.0 and 1.6.1.
4506 Disallow storing sRGB information when the sRGB is not supported.
4508 Version 1.6.2rc02 [April 18, 2013]
4509 Merge pngtest.c with libpng-1.7.0
4511 Version 1.6.2rc03 [April 22, 2013]
4512 Trivial spelling cleanup.
4514 Version 1.6.2rc04 and 1.6.2rc05 [omitted]
4516 Version 1.6.2rc06 [April 24, 2013]
4517 Reverted to version 1.6.2rc03. Recent changes to arm/neon support
4518 have been ported to libpng-1.7.0beta09 and will reappear in version
4521 Version 1.6.2 [April 25, 2013]
4524 Version 1.6.3beta01 [April 25, 2013]
4525 Revised stack marking in arm/filter_neon.S and configure.ac.
4526 Ensure that NEON filter stuff is completely disabled when switched 'off'.
4527 Previously the ARM NEON specific files were still built if the option
4528 was switched 'off' as opposed to being explicitly disabled.
4530 Version 1.6.3beta02 [April 26, 2013]
4531 Test for 'arm*' not just 'arm' in the host_cpu configure variable.
4532 Rebuilt the configure scripts.
4534 Version 1.6.3beta03 [April 30, 2013]
4535 Expanded manual paragraph about writing private chunks, particularly
4536 the need to call png_set_keep_unknown_chunks() when writing them.
4537 Avoid dereferencing NULL pointer possibly returned from
4538 png_create_write_struct() (Andrew Church).
4540 Version 1.6.3beta05 [May 9, 2013]
4541 Calculate our own zlib windowBits when decoding rather than trusting the
4542 CMF bytes in the PNG datastream.
4543 Added an option to force maximum window size for inflating, which was
4544 the behavior of libpng15 and earlier, via a new PNG_MAXIMUM_INFLATE_WINDOW
4545 option for png_set_options().
4546 Added png-fix-itxt and png-fix-too-far-back to the built programs and
4547 removed warnings from the source code and timepng that are revealed as
4549 Detect wrong libpng versions linked to png-fix-too-far-back, which currently
4550 only works with libpng versions that can be made to reliably fail when
4551 the deflate data contains an out-of-window reference. This means only
4553 Fixed gnu issues: g++ needs a static_cast, gcc 4.4.7 has a broken warning
4554 message which it is easier to work round than ignore.
4555 Updated contrib/pngminus/pnm2png.c (Paul Stewart):
4557 Ignore "#" delimited comments in input file to pnm2png.c.
4558 Fixed whitespace handling
4559 Added a call to png_set_packing()
4560 Initialize dimension values so if sscanf fails at least we have known
4562 Attempt to detect configuration issues with png-fix-too-far-back, which
4563 requires both the correct libpng and the correct zlib to function
4565 Check ZLIB_VERNUM for mismatches, enclose #error in quotes
4566 Added information in the documentation about problems with and fixes for
4567 the bad CRC and bad iTXt chunk situations.
4569 Version 1.6.3beta06 [May 12, 2013]
4570 Allow contrib/pngminus/pnm2png.c to compile without WRITE_INVERT and
4571 WRITE_PACK supported (writes error message that it can't read P1 or
4573 Improved png-fix-too-far-back usage message, added --suffix option.
4574 Revised contrib/pngminim/*/makefile to generate pnglibconf.h with the
4575 right zlib header files.
4576 Separated CPPFLAGS and CFLAGS in contrib/pngminim/*/makefile
4578 Version 1.6.3beta07 [June 8, 2013]
4579 Removed a redundant test in png_set_IHDR().
4580 Added set(CMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES ...) to CMakeLists.txt (Andrew Hundt)
4581 Deleted set(CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE) block from CMakeLists.txt
4582 Enclose the prototypes for the simplified write API in
4583 #ifdef PNG_STDIO_SUPPORTED/#endif
4584 Make ARM NEON support work at compile time (not just configure time).
4585 This moves the test on __ARM_NEON__ into pngconf.h to avoid issues when
4586 using a compiler that compiles for multiple architectures at one time.
4587 Removed PNG_FILTER_OPTIMIZATIONS and PNG_ARM_NEON_SUPPORTED from
4588 pnglibconf.h, allowing more of the decisions to be made internally
4589 (pngpriv.h) during the compile. Without this, symbol prefixing is broken
4590 under certain circumstances on ARM platforms. Now only the API parts of
4591 the optimizations ('check' vs 'api') are exposed in the public header files
4592 except that the new setting PNG_ARM_NEON_OPT documents how libpng makes the
4593 decision about whether or not to use the optimizations.
4594 Protect symbol prefixing against CC/CPPFLAGS/CFLAGS usage.
4595 Previous iOS/Xcode fixes for the ARM NEON optimizations moved the test
4596 on __ARM_NEON__ from configure time to compile time. This breaks symbol
4597 prefixing because the definition of the special png_init_filter_functions
4598 call was hidden at configure time if the relevant compiler arguments are
4599 passed in CFLAGS as opposed to CC. This change attempts to avoid all
4600 the confusion that would result by declaring the init function even when
4601 it is not used, so that it will always get prefixed.
4603 Version 1.6.3beta08 [June 18, 2013]
4604 Revised libpng.3 so that "doclifter" can process it.
4606 Version 1.6.3beta09 [June 27, 2013]
4607 Revised example.c to illustrate use of PNG_DEFAULT_sRGB and PNG_GAMMA_MAC_18
4608 as parameters for png_set_gamma(). These have been available since
4610 Renamed contrib/tools/png-fix-too-far-back.c to pngfix.c and revised it
4611 to check all compressed chunks known to libpng.
4613 Version 1.6.3beta10 [July 5, 2013]
4614 Updated documentation to show default behavior of benign errors correctly.
4615 Only compile ARM code when PNG_READ_SUPPORTED is defined.
4616 Fixed undefined behavior in contrib/tools/pngfix.c and added new strip
4617 option. pngfix relied on undefined behavior and even a simple change from
4618 gcc to g++ caused it to fail. The new strip option 'unsafe' has been
4619 implemented and is the default if --max is given. Option names have
4620 been clarified, with --strip=transform now stripping the bKGD chunk,
4621 which was stripped previously with --strip=unused.
4622 Added all documented chunk types to pngpriv.h
4623 Unified pngfix.c source with libpng17.
4625 Version 1.6.3rc01 [July 11, 2013]
4628 Version 1.6.3 [July 18, 2013]
4629 Revised manual about changes in iTXt chunk handling made in libpng-1.6.0.
4630 Added "/* SAFE */" comments in pngrutil.c and pngrtran.c where warnings
4631 may be erroneously issued by code-checking applications.
4633 Version 1.6.4beta01 [August 21, 2013]
4634 Added information about png_set_options() to the manual.
4635 Delay calling png_init_filter_functions() until a row with nonzero filter
4638 Version 1.6.4beta02 [August 30, 2013]
4639 Fixed inconsistent conditional compilation of png_chunk_unknown_handling()
4640 prototype, definition, and usage. Made it depend on
4641 PNG_HANDLE_AS_UNKNOWN_SUPPORTED everywhere.
4643 Version 1.6.4rc01 [September 5, 2013]
4646 Version 1.6.4 [September 12, 2013]
4649 Version 1.6.5 [September 14, 2013]
4650 Removed two stray lines of code from arm/arm_init.c.
4652 Version 1.6.6 [September 16, 2013]
4653 Removed two stray lines of code from arm/arm_init.c, again.
4655 Version 1.6.7beta01 [September 30, 2013]
4656 Revised unknown chunk code to correct several bugs in the NO_SAVE_/NO_WRITE
4658 Allow HANDLE_AS_UNKNOWN to work when other options are configured off. Also
4659 fixed the pngminim makefiles to work when $(MAKEFLAGS) contains stuff
4660 which terminates the make options (as by default in recent versions of
4662 Avoid up-cast warnings in pngvalid.c. On ARM the alignment requirements of
4663 png_modifier are greater than that of png_store and as a consequence
4664 compilation of pngvalid.c results in a warning about increased alignment
4665 requirements because of the bare cast to (png_modifier*). The code is safe,
4666 because the pointer is known to point to a stack allocated png_modifier,
4667 but this change avoids the warning.
4668 Fixed default behavior of ARM_NEON_API. If the ARM NEON API option was
4669 compiled without the CHECK option it defaulted to on, not off.
4670 Check user callback behavior in pngunknown.c. Previous versions compiled
4671 if SAVE_UNKNOWN was not available but did nothing since the callback
4672 was never implemented.
4673 Merged pngunknown.c with 1.7 version and back ported 1.7 improvements/fixes
4675 Version 1.6.7beta02 [October 12, 2013]
4676 Made changes for compatibility with automake 1.14:
4677 1) Added the 'compile' program to the list of programs that must be cleaned
4679 2) Added 'subdir-objects' which causes .c files in sub-directories to be
4680 compiled such that the corresponding .o files are also in the
4681 sub-directory. This is because automake 1.14 warns that the
4682 current behavior of compiling to the top level directory may be removed
4684 3) Updated dependencies on pnglibconf.h to match the new .o locations and
4685 added all the files in contrib/libtests and contrib/tools that depend
4687 4) Added 'BUILD_SOURCES = pnglibconf.h'; this is the automake recommended
4688 way of handling the dependencies of sources that are machine generated;
4689 unfortunately it only works if the user does 'make all' or 'make check',
4690 so the dependencies (3) are still required.
4691 Cleaned up (char*) casts of zlib messages. The latest version of the Intel C
4692 compiler complains about casting a string literal as (char*), so copied the
4693 treatment of z_const from the library code into pngfix.c
4694 Simplified error message code in pngunknown. The simplification has the
4695 useful side effect of avoiding a bogus warning generated by the latest
4696 version of the Intel C compiler (it objects to
4697 condition ? string-literal : string-literal).
4698 Make autogen.sh work with automake 1.13 as well as 1.14. Do this by always
4699 removing the 1.14 'compile' script but never checking for it.
4701 Version 1.6.7beta03 [October 19, 2013]
4702 Added ARMv8 support (James Yu <james.yu at linaro.org>). Added file
4703 arm/filter_neon_intrinsics.c; enable with -mfpu=neon.
4704 Revised pngvalid to generate size images with as many filters as it can
4705 manage, limited by the number of rows.
4706 Cleaned up ARM NEON compilation handling. The tests are now in pngpriv.h
4707 and detect the broken GCC compilers.
4709 Version 1.6.7beta04 [October 26, 2013]
4710 Allow clang derived from older GCC versions to use ARM intrinsics. This
4711 causes all clang builds that use -mfpu=neon to use the intrinsics code,
4712 not the assembler code. This has only been tested on iOS 7. It may be
4713 necessary to exclude some earlier clang versions but this seems unlikely.
4714 Changed NEON implementation selection mechanism. This allows assembler
4715 or intrinsics to be turned on at compile time during the build by defining
4716 PNG_ARM_NEON_IMPLEMENTATION to the correct value (2 or 1). This macro
4717 is undefined by default and the build type is selected in pngpriv.h.
4719 Version 1.6.7rc01 [November 2, 2013]
4722 Version 1.6.7rc02 [November 7, 2013]
4723 Fixed #include in filter_neon_intrinsics.c and ctype macros. The ctype char
4724 checking macros take an unsigned char argument, not a signed char.
4726 Version 1.6.7 [November 14, 2013]
4729 Version 1.6.8beta01 [November 24, 2013]
4730 Moved prototype for png_handle_unknown() in pngpriv.h outside of
4731 the #ifdef PNG_SET_UNKNOWN_CHUNKS_SUPPORTED/#endif block.
4732 Added "-Wall" to CFLAGS in contrib/pngminim/*/makefile
4733 Conditionally compile some unused functions reported by -Wall in
4735 Fixed 'minimal' builds. Various obviously useful minimal configurations
4736 don't build because of missing contrib/libtests test programs and
4737 overly complex dependencies in scripts/pnglibconf.dfa. This change
4738 adds contrib/conftest/*.dfa files that can be used in automatic build
4739 scripts to ensure that these configurations continue to build.
4740 Enabled WRITE_INVERT and WRITE_PACK in contrib/pngminim/encoder.
4741 Fixed pngvalid 'fail' function declaration on the Intel C Compiler.
4742 This reverts to the previous 'static' implementation and works round
4743 the 'unused static function' warning by using PNG_UNUSED().
4745 Version 1.6.8beta02 [November 30, 2013]
4746 Removed or marked PNG_UNUSED some harmless "dead assignments" reported
4747 by clang scan-build.
4748 Changed tabs to 3 spaces in png_debug macros and changed '"%s"m'
4749 to '"%s" m' to improve portability among compilers.
4750 Changed png_free_default() to free() in pngtest.c
4752 Version 1.6.8rc01 [December 12, 2013]
4753 Tidied up pngfix inits and fixed pngtest no-write builds.
4755 Version 1.6.8rc02 [December 14, 2013]
4756 Handle zero-length PLTE chunk or NULL palette with png_error()
4757 instead of png_chunk_report(), which by default issues a warning
4758 rather than an error, leading to later reading from a NULL pointer
4759 (png_ptr->palette) in png_do_expand_palette(). This is CVE-2013-6954
4760 and VU#650142. Libpng-1.6.1 through 1.6.7 are vulnerable.
4761 Libpng-1.6.0 and earlier do not have this bug.
4763 Version 1.6.8 [December 19, 2013]
4766 Version 1.6.9beta01 [December 26, 2013]
4767 Bookkeeping: Moved functions around (no changes). Moved transform
4768 function definitions before the place where they are called so that
4769 they can be made static. Move the intrapixel functions and the
4770 grayscale palette builder out of the png?tran.c files. The latter
4771 isn't a transform function and is no longer used internally, and the
4772 former MNG specific functions are better placed in pngread/pngwrite.c
4773 Made transform implementation functions static. This makes the internal
4774 functions called by png_do_{read|write}_transformations static. On an
4775 x86-64 DLL build (Gentoo Linux) this reduces the size of the text
4776 segment of the DLL by 1208 bytes, about 0.6%. It also simplifies
4777 maintenance by removing the declarations from pngpriv.h and allowing
4778 easier changes to the internal interfaces.
4779 Rebuilt configure scripts with automake-1.14.1 and autoconf-2.69
4780 in the tar distributions.
4782 Version 1.6.9beta02 [January 1, 2014]
4783 Added checks for libpng 1.5 to pngvalid.c. This supports the use of
4784 this version of pngvalid in libpng 1.5
4785 Merged with pngvalid.c from libpng-1.7 changes to create a single
4787 Removed #error macro from contrib/tools/pngfix.c (Thomas Klausner).
4788 Merged pngrio.c, pngtrans.c, pngwio.c, and pngerror.c with libpng-1.7.0
4789 Merged libpng-1.7.0 changes to make no-interlace configurations work
4791 Revised pngvalid.c to support libpng 1.5, which does not support the
4792 PNG_MAXIMUM_INFLATE_WINDOW option, so #define it out when appropriate in
4794 Allow unversioned links created on install to be disabled in configure.
4795 In configure builds 'make install' changes/adds links like png.h
4796 and libpng.a to point to the newly installed, versioned, files (e.g.
4797 libpng17/png.h and libpng17.a). Three new configure options and some
4798 rearrangement of Makefile.am allow creation of these links to be disabled.
4800 Version 1.6.9beta03 [January 10, 2014]
4801 Removed potentially misleading warning from png_check_IHDR().
4803 Version 1.6.9beta04 [January 20, 2014]
4804 Updated scripts/makefile.* to use CPPFLAGS (Cosmin).
4805 Added clang attribute support (Cosmin).
4807 Version 1.6.9rc01 [January 28, 2014]
4810 Version 1.6.9rc02 [January 30, 2014]
4811 Quiet an uninitialized memory warning from VC2013 in png_get_png().
4813 Version 1.6.9 [February 6, 2014]
4815 Version 1.6.10beta01 [February 9, 2014]
4816 Backported changes from libpng-1.7.0beta30 and beta31:
4817 Fixed a large number of instances where PNGCBAPI was omitted from
4818 function definitions.
4819 Added pngimage test program for png_read_png() and png_write_png()
4820 with two new test scripts.
4821 Removed dependence on !PNG_READ_EXPAND_SUPPORTED for calling
4822 png_set_packing() in png_read_png().
4823 Fixed combination of ~alpha with shift. On read invert alpha, processing
4824 occurred after shift processing, which causes the final values to be
4825 outside the range that should be produced by the shift. Reversing the
4826 order on read makes the two transforms work together correctly and mirrors
4827 the order used on write.
4828 Do not read invalid sBIT chunks. Previously libpng only checked sBIT
4829 values on write, so a malicious PNG writer could therefore cause
4830 the read code to return an invalid sBIT chunk, which might lead to
4831 application errors or crashes. Such chunks are now skipped (with
4832 chunk_benign_error).
4833 Make png_read_png() and png_write_png() prototypes in png.h depend
4834 upon PNG_READ_SUPPORTED and PNG_WRITE_SUPPORTED.
4835 Support builds with unsupported PNG_TRANSFORM_* values. All of the
4836 PNG_TRANSFORM_* values are always defined in png.h and, because they
4837 are used for both read and write in some cases, it is not reliable
4838 to #if out ones that are totally unsupported. This change adds error
4839 detection in png_read_image() and png_write_image() to do a
4840 png_app_error() if the app requests something that cannot be done
4841 and it adds corresponding code to pngimage.c to handle such options
4842 by not attempting to test them.
4844 Version 1.6.10beta02 [February 23, 2014]
4845 Moved redefines of png_error(), png_warning(), png_chunk_error(),
4846 and png_chunk_warning() from pngpriv.h to png.h to make them visible
4847 to libpng-calling applications.
4848 Moved OS dependent code from arm/arm_init.c, to allow the included
4849 implementation of the ARM NEON discovery function to be set at
4850 build-time and provide sample implementations from the current code in the
4851 contrib/arm-neon subdirectory. The __linux__ code has also been changed to
4852 compile and link on Android by using /proc/cpuinfo, and the old linux code
4853 is in contrib/arm-neon/linux-auxv.c. The new code avoids POSIX and Linux
4854 dependencies apart from opening /proc/cpuinfo and is C90 compliant.
4855 Check for info_ptr == NULL early in png_read_end() so we don't need to
4856 run all the png_handle_*() and depend on them to return if info_ptr == NULL.
4857 This improves the performance of png_read_end(png_ptr, NULL) and makes
4858 it more robust against future programming errors.
4859 Check for __has_extension before using it in pngconf.h, to
4860 support older Clang versions (Jeremy Sequoia).
4861 Treat CRC error handling with png_set_crc_action(), instead of with
4862 png_set_benign_errors(), which has been the case since libpng-1.6.0beta18.
4863 Use a user warning handler in contrib/gregbook/readpng2.c instead of default,
4864 so warnings will be put on stderr even if libpng has CONSOLE_IO disabled.
4865 Added png_ptr->process_mode = PNG_READ_IDAT_MODE in png_push_read_chunk
4866 after recognizing the IDAT chunk, which avoids an infinite loop while
4867 reading a datastream whose first IDAT chunk is of zero-length.
4868 This fixes CERT VU#684412 and CVE-2014-0333.
4869 Don't recognize known sRGB profiles as sRGB if they have been hacked,
4870 but don't reject them and don't issue a copyright violation warning.
4872 Version 1.6.10beta03 [February 25, 2014]
4873 Moved some documentation from png.h to libpng.3 and libpng-manual.txt
4874 Minor editing of contrib/arm-neon/README and contrib/examples/*.c
4876 Version 1.6.10rc01 [February 27, 2014]
4877 Fixed typos in the manual and in scripts/pnglibconf.dfa (CFLAGS -> CPPFLAGS
4878 and PNG_USR_CONFIG -> PNG_USER_CONFIG).
4880 Version 1.6.10rc02 [February 28, 2014]
4881 Removed unreachable return statement after png_chunk_error()
4884 Version 1.6.10rc03 [March 4, 2014]
4885 Un-deprecated png_data_freer().
4887 Version 1.6.10 [March 6, 2014]
4890 Version 1.6.11beta01 [March 17, 2014]
4891 Use "if (value != 0)" instead of "if (value)" consistently.
4892 Changed ZlibSrcDir from 1.2.5 to 1.2.8 in projects/vstudio.
4893 Moved configuration information from the manual to the INSTALL file.
4895 Version 1.6.11beta02 [April 6, 2014]
4896 Removed #if/#else/#endif from inside two pow() calls in pngvalid.c because
4897 they were handled improperly by Portland Group's PGI-14.1 - PGI-14.3
4898 when using its "__builtin_pow()" function.
4899 Silence 'unused parameter' build warnings (Cosmin Truta).
4900 $(CP) is now used alongside $(RM_F). Also, use 'copy' instead of 'cp'
4901 where applicable, and applied other minor makefile changes (Cosmin).
4902 Don't warn about invalid dimensions exceeding user limits (Cosmin).
4903 Allow an easy replacement of the default pre-built configuration
4904 header with a custom header, via the make PNGLIBCONF_H_PREBUILT
4907 Version 1.6.11beta03 [April 6, 2014]
4908 Fixed a typo in pngrutil.c, introduced in libpng-1.5.6, that interferes
4909 with "blocky" expansion of sub-8-bit interlaced PNG files (Eric Huss).
4910 Optionally use __builtin_bswap16() in png_do_swap().
4912 Version 1.6.11beta04 [April 19, 2014]
4913 Made progressive reading of interlaced images consistent with the
4914 behavior of the sequential reader and consistent with the manual, by
4915 moving some code out of the PNG_READ_INTERLACING_SUPPORTED blocks. The
4916 row_callback now receives the proper pass number and unexpanded rows, when
4917 png_combine_row() isn't built or used, and png_set_interlace_handling()
4919 Allow PNG_sRGB_PROFILE_CHECKING = (-1) to mean no sRGB profile checking.
4921 Version 1.6.11beta05 [April 26, 2014]
4922 Do not reject ICC V2 profiles that lack padding (Kai-Uwe Behrmann).
4923 Relocated closing bracket of the sRGB profile test loop to avoid getting
4924 "Not recognizing known sRGB profile that has been edited" warning for
4925 ICC V2 profiles that lack the MD5 signature in the profile header.
4927 Version 1.6.11beta06 [May 19, 2014]
4928 Added PNG_SKIP_sRGB_CHECK_PROFILE choice for png_set_option().
4930 Version 1.6.11rc01 [May 27, 2014]
4933 Version 1.6.11rc02 [June 3, 2014]
4934 Test ZLIB_VERNUM instead of PNG_ZLIB_VERNUM in contrib/tools/pngfix.c
4936 Version 1.6.11 [June 5, 2014]
4939 Version 1.6.12rc01 [June 6, 2014]
4940 Relocated new code from 1.6.11beta06 in png.c to a point after the
4941 declarations (Max Stepin).
4943 Version 1.6.12rc02 [June 7, 2014]
4944 Changed file permissions of contrib/tools/intgamma.sh,
4945 test-driver, and compile from 0644 to 0755 (Cosmin).
4947 Version 1.6.12rc03 [June 8, 2014]
4948 Ensure "__has_attribute()" macro exists before trying to use it with
4949 old clang compilers (MacPorts Ticket #43939).
4951 Version 1.6.12 [June 12, 2014]
4954 Version 1.6.13beta01 [July 4, 2014]
4955 Quieted -Wsign-compare and -Wclobber compiler warnings in
4956 contrib/pngminus/*.c
4957 Added "(void) png_ptr;" where needed in contrib/gregbook to quiet
4958 compiler complaints about unused pointers.
4959 Split a long output string in contrib/gregbook/rpng2-x.c.
4960 Added "PNG_SET_OPTION" requirement for sRGB chunk support to pnglibconf.dfa,
4961 Needed for write-only support (John Bowler).
4962 Changed "if defined(__ARM_NEON__)" to
4963 "if (defined(__ARM_NEON__) || defined(__ARM_NEON))" (James Wu).
4964 Fixed clang no-warning builds: png_digit was defined but never used.
4966 Version 1.6.13beta02 [July 21, 2014]
4967 Fixed an incorrect separator ("/" should be "\") in scripts/makefile.vcwin32
4968 (bug report from Wolfgang S. Kechel). Bug was introduced in libpng-1.6.11.
4969 Also fixed makefile.bc32, makefile.bor, makefile.msc, makefile.intel, and
4970 makefile.tc3 similarly.
4972 Version 1.6.13beta03 [August 3, 2014]
4973 Removed scripts/makefile.elf. It has not worked since libpng-1.5.0beta14
4974 due to elimination of the PNG_FUNCTION_EXPORT and PNG_DATA_EXPORT
4975 definitions from pngconf.h.
4976 Ensure that CMakeLists.txt makes the target "lib" directory before making
4977 symbolic link into it (SourceForge bug report #226 by Rolf Timmermans).
4979 Version 1.6.13beta04 [August 8, 2014]
4980 Added opinion that the ECCN (Export Control Classification Number) for
4981 libpng is EAR99 to the README file.
4982 Eliminated use of "$<" in makefile explicit rules, when copying
4983 $PNGLIBCONF_H_PREBUILT. This does not work on some versions of make;
4984 bug introduced in libpng version 1.6.11.
4986 Version 1.6.13rc01 [August 14, 2014]
4987 Made "ccopts" agree with "CFLAGS" in scripts/makefile.hp* and makefile.*sunu
4989 Version 1.6.13 [August 21, 2014]
4992 Version 1.6.14beta01 [September 14, 2014]
4993 Guard usage of png_ptr->options with #ifdef PNG_SET_OPTION_SUPPORTED.
4994 Do not build contrib/tools/pngfix.c when PNG_SETJMP_NOT_SUPPORTED,
4995 to allow "make" to complete without setjmp support (bug report by
4997 Add "#include <setjmp.h>" to contrib/tools/pngfix.c (John Bowler)
4999 Version 1.6.14beta02 [September 18, 2014]
5000 Use nanosleep() instead of usleep() in contrib/gregbook/rpng2-x.c
5001 because usleep() is deprecated.
5002 Define usleep() in contrib/gregbook/rpng2-x.c if not already defined
5003 in unistd.h and nanosleep() is not available; fixes error introduced
5005 Disable floating point exception handling in pngvalid.c when
5006 PNG_FLOATING_ARITHMETIC is not supported (bug report by "zootus
5007 at users.sourceforge.net").
5009 Version 1.6.14beta03 [September 19, 2014]
5010 Define FE_DIVBYZERO, FE_INVALID, and FE_OVERFLOW in pngvalid.c if not
5011 already defined. Revert floating point exception handling in pngvalid.c
5012 to version 1.6.14beta01 behavior.
5014 Version 1.6.14beta04 [September 27, 2014]
5015 Fixed incorrect handling of the iTXt compression flag in pngrutil.c
5016 (bug report by Shunsaku Hirata). Bug was introduced in libpng-1.6.0.
5018 Version 1.6.14beta05 [October 1, 2014]
5019 Added "option READ_iCCP enables READ_COMPRESSED_TEXT" to pnglibconf.dfa
5021 Version 1.6.14beta06 [October 5, 2014]
5022 Removed unused "text_len" parameter from private function png_write_zTXt().
5023 Conditionally compile some code in png_deflate_claim(), when
5024 PNG_WARNINGS_SUPPORTED and PNG_ERROR_TEXT_SUPPORTED are disabled.
5025 Replaced repeated code in pngpread.c with PNG_PUSH_SAVE_BUFFER_IF_FULL.
5026 Added "chunk iTXt enables TEXT" and "chunk zTXt enables TEXT"
5028 Removed "option READ_COMPRESSED_TEXT enables READ_TEXT" from pnglibconf.dfa,
5029 to make it possible to configure a libpng that supports iCCP but not TEXT.
5031 Version 1.6.14beta07 [October 7, 2014]
5032 Removed "option WRITE_COMPRESSED_TEXT enables WRITE_TEXT" from pnglibconf.dfa
5033 Only mark text chunks as written after successfully writing them.
5035 Version 1.6.14rc01 [October 15, 2014]
5036 Fixed some typos in comments.
5038 Version 1.6.14rc02 [October 17, 2014]
5039 Changed png_convert_to_rfc_1123() to png_convert_to_rfc_1123_buffer()
5040 in the manual, to reflect the change made in libpng-1.6.0.
5041 Updated README file to explain that direct access to the png_struct
5042 and info_struct members has not been permitted since libpng-1.5.0.
5044 Version 1.6.14 [October 23, 2014]
5047 Version 1.6.15beta01 [October 29, 2014]
5048 Changed "if (!x)" to "if (x == 0)" and "if (x)" to "if (x != 0)"
5049 Simplified png_free_data().
5050 Added missing "ptr = NULL" after some instances of png_free().
5052 Version 1.6.15beta02 [November 1, 2014]
5053 Changed remaining "if (!x)" to "if (x == 0)" and "if (x)" to "if (x != 0)"
5055 Version 1.6.15beta03 [November 3, 2014]
5056 Added PNG_USE_ARM_NEON configuration flag (Marcin Juszkiewicz).
5058 Version 1.6.15beta04 [November 4, 2014]
5059 Removed new PNG_USE_ARM_NEON configuration flag and made a one-line
5060 revision to configure.ac to support ARM on aarch64 instead (John Bowler).
5062 Version 1.6.15beta05 [November 5, 2014]
5063 Use png_get_libpng_ver(NULL) instead of PNG_LIBPNG_VER_STRING in
5064 example.c, pngtest.c, and applications in the contrib directory.
5065 Fixed an out-of-range read in png_user_version_check() (Bug report from
5066 Qixue Xiao, CVE-2015-8540).
5067 Simplified and future-proofed png_user_version_check().
5068 Fixed GCC unsigned int->float warnings. Various versions of GCC
5069 seem to generate warnings when an unsigned value is implicitly
5070 converted to double. This is probably a GCC bug but this change
5071 avoids the issue by explicitly converting to (int) where safe.
5072 Free all allocated memory in pngimage. The file buffer cache was left
5073 allocated at the end of the program, harmless but it causes memory
5074 leak reports from clang.
5075 Fixed array size calculations to avoid warnings. At various points
5076 in the code the number of elements in an array is calculated using
5077 sizeof. This generates a compile time constant of type (size_t) which
5078 is then typically assigned to an (unsigned int) or (int). Some versions
5079 of GCC on 64-bit systems warn about the apparent narrowing, even though
5080 the same compiler does apparently generate the correct, in-range,
5081 numeric constant. This adds appropriate, safe, casts to make the
5084 Version 1.6.15beta06 [November 6, 2014]
5085 Reverted use png_get_libpng_ver(NULL) instead of PNG_LIBPNG_VER_STRING
5086 in the manual, example.c, pngtest.c, and applications in the contrib
5087 directory. It was incorrect advice.
5089 Version 1.6.15beta07 [November 7, 2014]
5090 Removed #ifdef PNG_16BIT_SUPPORTED/#endif around png_product2(); it is
5091 needed by png_reciprocal2().
5092 Added #ifdef PNG_16BIT_SUPPORTED/#endif around png_log16bit() and
5094 Changed all "#endif /* PNG_FEATURE_SUPPORTED */" to "#endif /* FEATURE */"
5096 Version 1.6.15beta08 [November 8, 2014]
5097 More housecleaning in *.h
5099 Version 1.6.15rc01 [November 13, 2014]
5101 Version 1.6.15rc02 [November 14, 2014]
5102 The macros passed in the command line to Borland make were ignored if
5103 similarly-named macros were already defined in makefiles. This behavior
5104 is different from POSIX make and other make programs. Surround the
5105 macro definitions with ifndef guards (Cosmin).
5107 Version 1.6.15rc03 [November 16, 2014]
5108 Added "-D_CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS" to CFLAGS in scripts/makefile.vcwin32.
5109 Removed the obsolete $ARCH variable from scripts/makefile.darwin.
5111 Version 1.6.15 [November 20, 2014]
5114 Version 1.6.16beta01 [December 14, 2014]
5115 Added ".align 2" to arm/filter_neon.S to support old GAS assemblers that
5116 don't do alignment correctly.
5117 Revised Makefile.am and scripts/symbols.dfn to work with MinGW/MSYS
5120 Version 1.6.16beta02 [December 15, 2014]
5121 Revised Makefile.am and scripts/*.dfn again to work with MinGW/MSYS;
5122 renamed scripts/*.dfn to scripts/*.c (John Bowler).
5124 Version 1.6.16beta03 [December 21, 2014]
5125 Quiet a "comparison always true" warning in pngstest.c (John Bowler).
5127 Version 1.6.16rc01 [December 21, 2014]
5128 Restored a test on width that was removed from png.c at libpng-1.6.9
5129 (Bug report by Alex Eubanks, CVE-2015-0973).
5131 Version 1.6.16rc02 [December 21, 2014]
5132 Undid the update to pngrutil.c in 1.6.16rc01.
5134 Version 1.6.16rc03 [December 21, 2014]
5135 Fixed an overflow in png_combine_row() with very wide interlaced images
5136 (Bug report and fix by John Bowler, CVE-2014-9495).
5138 Version 1.6.16 [December 22, 2014]
5141 Version 1.6.17beta01 [January 29, 2015]
5142 Removed duplicate PNG_SAFE_LIMITS_SUPPORTED handling from pngconf.h
5143 Corrected the width limit calculation in png_check_IHDR().
5144 Removed user limits from pngfix. Also pass NULL pointers to
5145 png_read_row to skip the unnecessary row de-interlace stuff.
5146 Added testing of png_set_packing() to pngvalid.c
5147 Regenerated configure scripts in the *.tar distributions with libtool-2.4.4
5148 Implement previously untested cases of libpng transforms in pngvalid.c
5149 Fixed byte order in png_do_read_filler() with 16-bit input. Previously
5150 the high and low bytes of the filler, from png_set_filler() or from
5151 png_set_add_alpha(), were read in the wrong order.
5152 Made the check for out-of-range values in png_set_tRNS() detect
5153 values that are exactly 2^bit_depth, and work on 16-bit platforms.
5154 Merged some parts of libpng-1.6.17beta01 and libpng-1.7.0beta47.
5155 Added #ifndef __COVERITY__ where needed in png.c, pngrutil.c and
5156 pngset.c to avoid warnings about dead code.
5157 Added "& 0xff" to many instances of expressions that are typecast
5158 to (png_byte), to avoid Coverity warnings.
5160 Version 1.6.17beta02 [February 7, 2015]
5161 Work around one more Coverity-scan dead-code warning.
5162 Do not build png_product2() when it is unused.
5164 Version 1.6.17beta03 [February 17, 2015]
5165 Display user limits in the output from pngtest.
5166 Eliminated the PNG_SAFE_LIMITS macro and restored the 1-million-column
5167 and 1-million-row default limits in pnglibconf.dfa, that can be reset
5168 by the user at build time or run time. This provides a more robust
5169 defense against DOS and as-yet undiscovered overflows.
5171 Version 1.6.17beta04 [February 21, 2015]
5172 Added PNG_WRITE_CUSTOMIZE_COMPRESSION_SUPPORTED macro, on by default.
5173 Allow user to call png_get_IHDR() with NULL arguments (Reuben Hawkins).
5174 Rebuilt configure scripts with automake-1.15 and libtool-2.4.6
5176 Version 1.6.17beta05 [February 25, 2015]
5177 Restored compiling of png_reciprocal2 with PNG_NO_16BIT.
5179 Version 1.6.17beta06 [February 27, 2015]
5180 Moved png_set_filter() prototype into a PNG_WRITE_SUPPORTED block
5182 Avoid runtime checks when converting integer to png_byte with
5183 Visual Studio (Sergey Kosarevsky)
5185 Version 1.6.17rc01 [March 4, 2015]
5188 Version 1.6.17rc02 [March 9, 2015]
5189 Removed some comments that the configure script did not handle
5190 properly from scripts/pnglibconf.dfa and pnglibconf.h.prebuilt.
5191 Free the unknown_chunks structure even when it contains no data.
5193 Version 1.6.17rc03 [March 12, 2015]
5194 Updated CMakeLists.txt to add OSX framework, change YES/NO to ON/OFF
5195 for consistency, and remove some useless tests (Alexey Petruchik).
5197 Version 1.6.17rc04 [March 16, 2015]
5198 Remove pnglibconf.h, pnglibconf.c, and pnglibconf.out instead of
5199 pnglibconf.* in "make clean" (Cosmin).
5200 Fix bug in calculation of maxbits, in png_write_sBIT, introduced
5201 in libpng-1.6.17beta01 (John Bowler).
5203 Version 1.6.17rc05 [March 21, 2015]
5204 Define PNG_FILTER_* and PNG_FILTER_VALUE_* in png.h even when WRITE
5205 is not supported (John Bowler). This fixes an error introduced in
5206 libpng-1.6.17beta06.
5207 Reverted "& 0xff" additions of version 1.6.17beta01. Libpng passes
5208 the Coverity scan without them.
5210 Version 1.6.17rc06 [March 23, 2015]
5211 Remove pnglibconf.dfn and pnglibconf.pre with "make clean".
5212 Reformatted some "&0xff" instances to "& 0xff".
5213 Fixed simplified 8-bit-linear to sRGB alpha. The calculated alpha
5214 value was wrong. It's not clear if this affected the final stored
5215 value; in the obvious code path the upper and lower 8-bits of the
5216 alpha value were identical and the alpha was truncated to 8-bits
5217 rather than dividing by 257 (John Bowler).
5219 Version 1.6.17 [March 26, 2015]
5222 Version 1.6.18beta01 [April 1, 2015]
5223 Removed PNG_SET_CHUNK_[CACHE|MALLOC]_LIMIT_SUPPORTED macros. They
5224 have been combined with PNG_SET_USER_LIMITS_SUPPORTED (resolves
5225 bug report by Andrew Church).
5226 Fixed rgb_to_gray checks and added tRNS checks to pngvalid.c. This
5227 fixes some arithmetic errors that caused some tests to fail on
5228 some 32-bit platforms (Bug reports by Peter Breitenlohner [i686]
5229 and Petr Gajdos [i586]).
5231 Version 1.6.18beta02 [April 26, 2015]
5232 Suppressed some warnings from the Borland C++ 5.5.1/5.82 compiler
5233 (Bug report by Viktor Szakats).
5235 Version 1.6.18beta03 [May 6, 2015]
5236 Replaced "unexpected" with an integer (0xabadca11) in pngset.c
5237 where a long was expected, to avoid a compiler warning when PNG_DEBUG > 1.
5238 Added contrib/examples/simpleover.c, to demonstrate how to handle
5239 alpha compositing of multiple images, using the "simplified API"
5240 and an example PNG generation tool, contrib/examples/genpng.c
5243 Version 1.6.18beta04 [May 20, 2015]
5244 PNG_RELEASE_BUILD replaces tests where the code depended on the build base
5245 type and can be defined on the command line, allowing testing in beta
5246 builds (John Bowler).
5247 Avoid Coverity issue 80858 (REVERSE NULL) in pngtest.c PNG_DEBUG builds.
5248 Avoid a harmless potential integer overflow in png_XYZ_from_xy() (Bug
5249 report from Christopher Ferris).
5251 Version 1.6.18beta05 [May 31, 2015]
5252 Backport filter selection code from libpng-1.7.0beta51, to combine
5253 sub_row, up_row, avg_row, and paeth_row into try_row and tst_row.
5254 Changed png_voidcast(), etc., to voidcast(), etc., in contrib/tools/pngfix.c
5255 to avoid confusion with the libpng private macros.
5256 Fixed old cut&paste bug in the weighted filter selection code in
5257 pngwutil.c, introduced in libpng-0.95, March 1997.
5259 Version 1.6.18beta06 [June 1, 2015]
5260 Removed WRITE_WEIGHTED_FILTERED code, to save a few kbytes of the
5261 compiled library size. It never worked properly and as far as we can
5262 tell, no one uses it. The png_set_filter_heuristics() and
5263 png_set_filter_heuristics_fixed() APIs are retained but deprecated
5266 Version 1.6.18beta07 [June 6, 2015]
5267 Removed non-working progressive reader 'skip' function. This
5268 function has apparently never been used. It was implemented
5269 to support back-door modification of png_struct in libpng-1.4.x
5270 but (because it does nothing and cannot do anything) was apparently
5271 never tested (John Bowler).
5272 Fixed cexcept.h in which GCC 5 now reports that one of the auto
5273 variables in the Try macro needs to be volatile to prevent value
5274 being lost over the setjmp (John Bowler).
5275 Fixed NO_WRITE_FILTER and -Wconversion build breaks (John Bowler).
5276 Fix g++ build breaks (John Bowler).
5277 Quieted some Coverity issues in pngfix.c, png-fix-itxt.c, pngvalid.c,
5278 pngstest.c, and pngimage.c. Most seem harmless, but png-fix-itxt
5279 would only work with iTXt chunks with length 255 or less.
5280 Added #ifdef's to contrib/examples programs so people don't try
5281 to compile them without the minimum required support enabled
5282 (suggested by Flavio Medeiros).
5284 Version 1.6.18beta08 [June 30, 2015]
5285 Eliminated the final two Coverity defects (insecure temporary file
5286 handling in contrib/libtests/pngstest.c; possible overflow of
5287 unsigned char in contrib/tools/png-fix-itxt.c). To use the "secure"
5288 file handling, define PNG_USE_MKSTEMP, otherwise "tmpfile()" will
5290 Removed some unused WEIGHTED_FILTER macros from png.h and pngstruct.h
5292 Version 1.6.18beta09 [July 5, 2015]
5293 Removed some useless typecasts from contrib/tools/png-fix-itxt.c
5294 Fixed a new signed-unsigned comparison in pngrtran.c (Max Stepin).
5295 Replaced arbitrary use of 'extern' with #define PNG_LINKAGE_*. To
5296 preserve API compatibility, the new defines all default to "extern"
5297 (requested by Jan Nijtmans).
5299 Version 1.6.18rc01 [July 9, 2015]
5300 Belatedly added Mans Rullgard and James Yu to the list of Contributing
5303 Version 1.6.18rc02 [July 12, 2015]
5304 Restored unused FILTER_HEURISTIC macros removed at libpng-1.6.18beta08
5305 to png.h to avoid compatibility warnings.
5307 Version 1.6.18rc03 [July 15, 2015]
5308 Minor changes to the man page
5310 Version 1.6.18 [July 23, 2015]
5313 Version 1.6.19beta01 [July 30, 2015]
5314 Updated obsolete information about the simplified API macros in the
5315 manual pages (Bug report by Arc Riley).
5316 Avoid potentially dereferencing NULL info_ptr in png_info_init_3().
5317 Rearranged png.h to put the major sections in the same order as
5319 Eliminated unused PNG_COST_SHIFT, PNG_WEIGHT_SHIFT, PNG_COST_FACTOR, and
5320 PNG_WEIGHT_FACTOR macros.
5321 Suppressed some warnings from the Borland C++ 5.5.1/5.82 compiler
5322 (Bug report by Viktor Szakats). Several warnings remain and are
5323 unavoidable, where we test for overflow.
5324 Fixed potential leak of png_pixels in contrib/pngminus/pnm2png.c
5325 Fixed uninitialized variable in contrib/gregbook/rpng2-x.c
5327 Version 1.6.19beta02 [August 19, 2015]
5328 Moved config.h.in~ from the "libpng_autotools_files" list to the
5329 "libpng_autotools_extra" list in autogen.sh because it was causing a
5330 false positive for missing files (bug report by Robert C. Seacord).
5331 Removed unreachable "break" statements in png.c, pngread.c, and pngrtran.c
5332 to suppress clang warnings (Bug report by Viktor Szakats).
5333 Fixed some bad links in the man page.
5334 Changed "n bit" to "n-bit" in comments.
5335 Added signed/unsigned 16-bit safety net. This removes the dubious
5336 0x8000 flag definitions on 16-bit systems. They aren't supported
5337 yet the defs *probably* work, however it seems much safer to do this
5338 and be advised if anyone, contrary to advice, is building libpng 1.6
5339 on a 16-bit system. It also adds back various switch default clauses
5340 for GCC; GCC errors out if they are not present (with an appropriately
5341 high level of warnings).
5342 Safely convert num_bytes to a png_byte in png_set_sig_bytes() (Robert
5344 Fixed the recently reported 1's complement security issue by replacing
5345 the value that is illegal in the PNG spec, in both signed and unsigned
5346 values, with 0. Illegal unsigned values (anything greater than or equal
5347 to 0x80000000) can still pass through, but since these are not illegal
5348 in ANSI-C (unlike 0x80000000 in the signed case) the checking that
5349 occurs later can catch them (John Bowler).
5351 Version 1.6.19beta03 [September 26, 2015]
5352 Fixed png_save_int_32 when int is not 2's complement (John Bowler).
5353 Updated libpng16 with all the recent test changes from libpng17,
5354 including changes to pngvalid.c to ensure that the original,
5355 distributed, version of contrib/visupng/cexcept.h can be used
5357 pngvalid contains the correction to the use of SAVE/STORE_
5358 UNKNOWN_CHUNKS; a bug revealed by changes in libpng 1.7. More
5359 tests contain the --strict option to detect warnings and the
5360 pngvalid-standard test has been corrected so that it does not
5361 turn on progressive-read. There is a separate test which does
5363 Also made some signed/unsigned fixes.
5364 Make pngstest error limits version specific. Splitting the machine
5365 generated error structs out to a file allows the values to be updated
5366 without changing pngstest.c itself. Since libpng 1.6 and 1.7 have
5367 slightly different error limits this simplifies maintenance. The
5368 makepngs.sh script has also been updated to more accurately reflect
5369 current problems in libpng 1.7 (John Bowler).
5370 Incorporated new test PNG files into make check. tests/pngstest-*
5371 are changed so that the new test files are divided into 8 groups by
5372 gamma and alpha channel. These tests have considerably better code
5373 and pixel-value coverage than contrib/pngsuite; however,coverage is
5374 still incomplete (John Bowler).
5375 Removed the '--strict' in 1.6 because of the double-gamma-correction
5376 warning, updated pngstest-errors.h for the errors detected with the
5377 new contrib/testspngs PNG test files (John Bowler).
5379 Version 1.6.19beta04 [October 15, 2015]
5380 Worked around rgb-to-gray issues in libpng 1.6. The previous
5381 attempts to ignore the errors in the code aren't quite enough to
5382 deal with the 'channel selection' encoding added to libpng 1.7; abort.
5383 pngvalid.c is changed to drop this encoding in prior versions.
5384 Fixed 'pow' macros in pngvalid.c. It is legal for 'pow' to be a
5385 macro, therefore the argument list cannot contain preprocessing
5386 directives. Make sure pow is a function where this happens. This is
5387 a minimal safe fix, the issue only arises in non-performance-critical
5388 code (bug report by Curtis Leach, fix by John Bowler).
5389 Added sPLT support to pngtest.c
5391 Version 1.6.19rc01 [October 23, 2015]
5394 Version 1.6.19rc02 [October 31, 2015]
5395 Prevent setting or writing over-length PLTE chunk (Cosmin Truta).
5396 Silently truncate over-length PLTE chunk while reading.
5397 Libpng incorrectly calculated the output rowbytes when the application
5398 decreased either the number of channels or the bit depth (or both) in
5399 a user transform. This was safe; libpng overallocated buffer space
5400 (potentially by quite a lot; up to 4 times the amount required) but,
5401 from 1.5.4 on, resulted in a png_error (John Bowler).
5403 Version 1.6.19rc03 [November 3, 2015]
5404 Fixed some inconsequential cut-and-paste typos in png_set_cHRM_XYZ_fixed().
5405 Clarified COPYRIGHT information to state explicitly that versions
5406 are derived from previous versions.
5407 Removed much of the long list of previous versions from png.h and
5410 Version 1.6.19rc04 [November 5, 2015]
5411 Fixed new bug with CRC error after reading an over-length palette
5412 (bug report by Cosmin Truta) (CVE-2015-8126).
5414 Version 1.6.19 [November 12, 2015]
5415 Cleaned up coding style in png_handle_PLTE().
5417 Version 1.6.20beta01 [November 20, 2015]
5418 Avoid potential pointer overflow/underflow in png_handle_sPLT() and
5419 png_handle_pCAL() (Bug report by John Regehr).
5421 Version 1.6.20beta02 [November 23, 2015]
5422 Fixed incorrect implementation of png_set_PLTE() that uses png_ptr
5423 not info_ptr, that left png_set_PLTE() open to the CVE-2015-8126
5424 vulnerability. Fixes CVE-2015-8472.
5426 Version 1.6.20beta03 [November 24, 2015]
5427 Backported tests from libpng-1.7.0beta69.
5429 Version 1.6.20rc01 [November 26, 2015]
5430 Fixed an error in handling of bad zlib CMINFO field in pngfix, found by
5431 American Fuzzy Lop, reported by Brian Carpenter. inflate() doesn't
5432 immediately fault a bad CMINFO field; instead a 'too far back' error
5433 happens later (at least some times). pngfix failed to limit CMINFO to
5434 the allowed values but then assumed that window_bits was in range,
5435 triggering an assert. The bug is mostly harmless; the PNG file cannot
5438 Version 1.6.20rc02 [November 29, 2015]
5439 In libpng 1.6 zlib initialization was changed to use the window size
5440 in the zlib stream, not a fixed value. This causes some invalid images,
5441 where CINFO is too large, to display 'correctly' if the rest of the
5442 data is valid. This provides a workaround for zlib versions where the
5443 error arises (ones that support the API change to use the window size
5446 Version 1.6.20 [December 3, 2015]
5449 Version 1.6.21beta01 [December 11, 2015]
5450 Fixed syntax "$(command)" in tests/pngstest that some shells other than
5451 bash could not parse (Bug report by Nelson Beebe). Use `command` instead.
5453 Version 1.6.21beta02 [December 14, 2015]
5454 Moved png_check_keyword() from pngwutil.c to pngset.c
5455 Removed LE/BE dependencies in pngvalid, to 'fix' the current problem
5456 in the BigEndian tests by not testing it, making the BE code the same
5458 Fixes to pngvalid for various reduced build configurations (eliminate unused
5459 statics) and a fix for the case in rgb_to_gray when the digitize option
5460 reduces graylo to 0, producing a large error.
5462 Version 1.6.21beta03 [December 18, 2015]
5463 Widened the 'limit' check on the internally calculated error limits in
5464 the 'DIGITIZE' case (the code used prior to 1.7 for rgb_to_gray error
5465 checks) and changed the check to only operate in non-release builds
5466 (base build type not RC or RELEASE.)
5467 Fixed undefined behavior in pngvalid.c, undefined because
5468 (png_byte) << shift is undefined if it changes the signed bit
5469 (because png_byte is promoted to int). The libpng exported functions
5470 png_get_uint_32 and png_get_uint_16 handle this. (Bug reported by
5471 David Drysdale as a result of reports from UBSAN in clang 3.8).
5472 This changes pngvalid to use BE random numbers; this used to produce
5473 errors but these should not be fixed as a result of the previous changes.
5475 Version 1.6.21rc01 [January 4, 2016]
5476 In projects/vstudio, combined readme.txt and WARNING into README.txt
5478 Version 1.6.21rc02 [January 7, 2016]
5479 Relocated assert() in contrib/tools/pngfix.c, bug found by American
5480 Fuzzy Lop, reported by Brian Carpenter.
5481 Marked 'limit' UNUSED in transform_range_check(). This only affects
5484 Version 1.6.21 [January 15, 2016]
5485 Worked around a false-positive Coverity issue in pngvalid.c.
5487 Version 1.6.22beta01 [January 23, 2016]
5488 Changed PNG_USE_MKSTEMP to __COVERITY__ to select alternate
5489 "tmpfile()" implementation in contrib/libtests/pngstest.c
5490 Fixed NO_STDIO build of pngunknown.c to skip calling png_init_io()
5491 if there is no stdio.h support.
5492 Added a png_image_write_to_memory() API and a number of assist macros
5493 to allow an application that uses the simplified API write to bypass
5494 stdio and write directly to memory.
5495 Added some warnings (png.h) and some check code to detect *possible*
5496 overflow in the ROW_STRIDE and simplified image SIZE macros. This
5497 disallows image width/height/format that *might* overflow. This is
5498 a quiet API change that limits in-memory image size (uncompressed) to
5499 less than 4GByte and image row size (stride) to less than 2GByte.
5500 Revised workaround for false-positive Coverity issue in pngvalid.c.
5502 Version 1.6.22beta02 [February 8, 2016]
5503 Only use exit(77) in configure builds.
5504 Corrected error in PNG_IMAGE_PNG_SIZE_MAX. This new macro underreported
5505 the palette size because it failed to take into account that the memory
5506 palette has to be expanded to full RGB when it is written to PNG.
5507 Updated CMakeLists.txt, added supporting scripts/gen*.cmake.in
5508 and test.cmake.in (Roger Leigh).
5509 Relaxed limit checks on gamma values in pngrtran.c. As suggested in
5510 the comments gamma values outside the range currently permitted
5511 by png_set_alpha_mode are useful for HDR data encoding. These values
5512 are already permitted by png_set_gamma so it is reasonable caution to
5513 extend the png_set_alpha_mode range as HDR imaging systems are starting
5516 Version 1.6.22beta03 [March 9, 2016]
5517 Added a common-law trademark notice and export control information
5518 to the LICENSE file, png.h, and the man page.
5519 Restored "& 0xff" in png_save_uint_16() and png_save_uint_32() that
5520 were accidentally removed from libpng-1.6.17.
5521 Changed PNG_INFO_cHNK and PNG_FREE_cHNK from 0xnnnn to 0xnnnnU in png.h
5522 (Robert C. Seacord).
5523 Removed dubious "#if INT_MAX" test from png.h that was added to
5524 libpng-1.6.19beta02 (John Bowler).
5525 Add ${INCLUDES} in scripts/genout.cmake.in (Bug report by Nixon Kwok).
5526 Updated LICENSE to say files in the contrib directory are not
5527 necessarily under the libpng license, and that some makefiles have
5528 other copyright owners.
5529 Added INTEL-SSE2 support (Mike Klein and Matt Sarett, Google, Inc.).
5530 Made contrib/libtests/timepng more robust. The code no longer gives
5531 up/fails on invalid PNG data, it just skips it (with error messages).
5532 The code no longer fails on PNG files with data beyond IEND. Options
5533 exist to use png_read_png (reading the whole image, not by row) and, in
5534 that case, to apply any of the supported transforms. This makes for
5535 more realistic testing; the decoded data actually gets used in a
5536 meaningful fashion (John Bowler).
5537 Fixed some misleading indentation (Krishnaraj Bhat).
5539 Version 1.6.22beta04 [April 5, 2016]
5540 Force GCC compilation to C89 if needed (Dagobert Michelsen).
5541 SSE filter speed improvements for bpp=3:
5542 memcpy-free implementations of load3() / store3().
5543 call load3() only when needed at the end of a scanline.
5545 Version 1.6.22beta05 [April 27, 2016]
5546 Added PNG_FAST_FILTERS macro (defined as
5547 PNG_FILTER_NONE|PNG_FILTER_SUB|PNG_FILTER_UP).
5548 Various fixes for contrib/libtests/timepng.c
5549 Moved INTEL-SSE code from pngpriv.h into contrib/intel/intel_sse.patch.
5550 Fixed typo (missing underscore) in #define PNG_READ_16_TO_8_SUPPORTED
5551 (Bug report by Y.Ohashik).
5553 Version 1.6.22beta06 [May 5, 2016]
5554 Rebased contrib/intel_sse.patch.
5555 Quieted two Coverity issues in contrib/libtests/timepng.c.
5556 Fixed issues with scripts/genout.cmake.in (David Capello, Nixon Kwok):
5557 Added support to use multiple directories in ZLIBINCDIR variable,
5558 Fixed CMAKE_C_FLAGS with multiple values when genout is compiled on MSVC,
5559 Fixed pnglibconf.c compilation on OS X including the sysroot path.
5561 Version 1.6.22rc01 [May 14, 2016]
5564 Version 1.6.22rc02 [May 16, 2016]
5565 Removed contrib/timepng from default build; it does not build on platforms
5566 that don't supply clock_gettime().
5568 Version 1.6.22rc03 [May 17, 2016]
5569 Restored contrib/timepng to default build but check for the presence
5570 of clock_gettime() in configure.ac and Makefile.am.
5572 Version 1.6.22 [May 26, 2016]
5575 Version 1.6.23beta01 [May 29, 2016]
5576 Stop a potential memory leak in png_set_tRNS() (Bug report by Ted Ying).
5577 Fixed the progressive reader to handle empty first IDAT chunk properly
5578 (patch by Timothy Nikkel). This bug was introduced in libpng-1.6.0 and
5579 only affected the libpng16 branch.
5580 Added tests in pngvalid.c to check zero-length IDAT chunks in various
5581 positions. Fixed the sequential reader to handle these more robustly
5584 Version 1.6.23rc01 [June 2, 2016]
5585 Corrected progressive read input buffer in pngvalid.c. The previous version
5586 the code invariably passed just one byte at a time to libpng. The intent
5587 was to pass a random number of bytes in the range 0..511.
5588 Moved sse2 prototype from pngpriv.h to contrib/intel/intel_sse.patch.
5589 Added missing ")" in pngerror.c (Matt Sarrett).
5591 Version 1.6.23rc02 [June 4, 2016]
5592 Fixed undefined behavior in png_push_save_buffer(). Do not call
5593 memcpy() with a null source, even if count is zero (Leon Scroggins III).
5595 Version 1.6.23 [June 9, 2016]
5596 Fixed bad link to RFC2083 in png.5 (Nikola Forro).
5598 Version 1.6.24beta01 [June 11, 2016]
5599 Avoid potential overflow of the PNG_IMAGE_SIZE macro. This macro
5600 is not used within libpng, but is used in some of the examples.
5602 Version 1.6.24beta02 [June 23, 2016]
5603 Correct filter heuristic overflow handling. This was broken when the
5604 write filter code was moved out-of-line; if there is a single filter and
5605 the heuristic sum overflows the calculation of the filtered line is not
5606 completed. In versions prior to 1.6 the code was duplicated in-line
5607 and the check not performed, so the filter operation completed; however,
5608 in the multi-filter case where the sum is performed the 'none' filter would
5609 be selected if all the sums overflowed, even if it wasn't in the filter
5610 list. The fix to the first problem is simply to provide PNG_SIZE_MAX as
5611 the current lmins sum value; this means the sum can never exceed it and
5612 overflows silently. A reasonable compiler that does choose to inline
5613 the code will simply eliminate the sum check.
5614 The fix to the second problem is to use high precision arithmetic (this is
5615 implemented in 1.7), however a simple safe fix here is to chose the lowest
5616 numbered filter in the list from png_set_filter (this only works if the
5617 first problem is also fixed) (John Bowler).
5618 Use a more efficient absolute value calculation on SSE2 (Matthieu Darbois).
5619 Fixed the case where PNG_IMAGE_BUFFER_SIZE can overflow in the application
5620 as a result of the application using an increased 'row_stride'; previously
5621 png_image_finish_read only checked for overflow on the base calculation of
5622 components. (I.e. it checked for overflow of a 32-bit number on the total
5623 number of pixel components in the output format, not the possibly padded row
5624 length and not the number of bytes, which for linear formats is twice the
5625 number of components.)
5626 MSVC does not like '-(unsigned)', so replaced it with 0U-(unsigned)
5627 MSVC does not like (uInt) = -(unsigned) (i.e. as an initializer), unless
5628 the conversion is explicitly invoked by a cast.
5629 Put the SKIP definition in the correct place. It needs to come after the
5630 png.h include (see all the other .c files in contrib/libtests) because it
5631 depends on PNG_LIBPNG_VER.
5632 Removed the three compile warning options from the individual project
5633 files into the zlib.props globals. It increases the warning level from 4
5634 to All and adds a list of the warnings that need to be turned off. This is
5635 semi-documentary; the intent is to tell libpng users which warnings have
5636 been examined and judged non-fixable at present. The warning about
5637 structure padding is fixable, but it would be a significant change (moving
5638 structure members around).
5640 Version 1.6.24beta03 [July 4, 2016]
5641 Optimized absolute value calculation in filter selection, similar to
5642 code in the PAETH decoder in pngrutil.c. Build with PNG_USE_ABS to
5644 Added pngcp to the build together with a pngcp.dfa configuration test.
5645 Added high resolution timing to pngcp.
5646 Added "Common linking failures" section to INSTALL.
5647 Relocated misplaced #endif in png.c sRGB profile checking.
5648 Fixed two Coverity issues in pngcp.c.
5650 Version 1.6.24beta04 [July 8, 2016]
5651 Avoid filter-selection heuristic sum calculations in cases where only one
5652 filter is a candidate for selection. This trades off code size (added
5653 private png_setup_*_row_only() functions) for speed.
5655 Version 1.6.24beta05 [July 13, 2016]
5656 Fixed some indentation to comply with our coding style.
5657 Added contrib/tools/reindent.
5659 Version 1.6.24beta06 [July 18, 2016]
5660 Fixed more indentation to comply with our coding style.
5661 Eliminated unnecessary tests of boolean png_isaligned() vs 0.
5663 Version 1.6.24rc01 [July 25, 2016]
5666 Version 1.6.24rc02 [August 1, 2016]
5667 Conditionally compile SSE2 headers in contrib/intel/intel_sse.patch
5668 Conditionally compile png_decompress_chunk().
5670 Version 1.6.24rc03 [August 2, 2016]
5671 Conditionally compile ARM_NEON headers in pngpriv.h
5672 Updated contrib/intel/intel_sse.patch
5674 Version 1.6.24[August 4, 2016]
5677 Version 1.6.25beta01 [August 12, 2016]
5678 Reject oversized iCCP profile immediately.
5679 Cleaned up PNG_DEBUG compile of pngtest.c.
5680 Conditionally compile png_inflate().
5682 Version 1.6.25beta02 [August 18, 2016]
5683 Don't install pngcp; it conflicts with pngcp in the pngtools package.
5684 Minor editing of INSTALL, (whitespace, added copyright line)
5686 Version 1.6.25rc01 [August 24, 2016]
5689 Version 1.6.25rc02 [August 29, 2016]
5690 Added MIPS support (Mandar Sahastrabuddhe <Mandar.Sahastrabuddhe@imgtec.com>).
5691 Only the UP filter is currently implemented.
5693 Version 1.6.25rc03 [August 29, 2016]
5694 Rebased contrib/intel/intel_sse.patch after the MIPS implementation.
5696 Version 1.6.25rc04 [August 30, 2016]
5697 Added MIPS support for SUB, AVG, and PAETH filters (Mandar Sahastrabuddhe).
5699 Version 1.6.25rc05 [August 30, 2016]
5700 Rebased contrib/intel/intel_sse.patch after the MIPS implementation update..
5702 Version 1.6.25 [September 1, 2016]
5705 Version 1.6.26beta01 [September 26, 2016]
5706 Fixed handling zero length IDAT in pngfix (bug report by Agostino Sarubbo,
5707 bugfix by John Bowler).
5708 Do not issue a png_error() on read in png_set_pCAL() because png_handle_pCAL
5709 has allocated memory that libpng needs to free.
5710 Conditionally compile png_set_benign_errors() in pngread.c and pngtest.c
5711 Issue a png_benign_error instead of a png_error on ADLER32 mismatch
5712 while decoding compressed data chunks.
5713 Changed PNG_ZLIB_VERNUM to ZLIB_VERNUM in pngpriv.h, pngstruct.h, and
5715 If CRC handling of critical chunks has been set to PNG_CRC_QUIET_USE,
5716 ignore the ADLER32 checksum in the IDAT chunk as well as the chunk CRCs.
5717 Issue png_benign_error() on ADLER32 checksum mismatch instead of png_error().
5718 Add tests/badcrc.png and tests/badadler.png to tests/pngtest.
5719 Merged pngtest.c with libpng-1.7.0beta84/pngtest.c
5721 Version 1.6.26beta02 [October 1, 2016]
5722 Updated the documentation about CRC and ADLER32 handling.
5723 Quieted 117 warnings from clang-3.8 in pngtrans.c, pngread.c,
5724 pngwrite.c, pngunknown.c, and pngvalid.c.
5725 Quieted 58 (out of 144) -Wconversion compiler warnings by changing
5726 flag definitions in pngpriv.h from 0xnnnn to 0xnnnnU and trivial changes
5727 in png.c, pngread.c, and pngwutil.c.
5729 Version 1.6.26beta03 [October 2, 2016]
5730 Removed contrib/libtests/*.orig and *.rej that slipped into the tarballs.
5731 Quieted the 86 remaining -Wconversion compiler warnings by
5732 revising the png_isaligned() macro and trivial changes in png.c,
5733 pngerror.c, pngget.c, pngmem.c, pngset.c, pngrtran.c, pngrutil.c,
5734 pngwtran.c, pngwrite.c, and pngwutil.c.
5736 Version 1.6.26beta04 [October 3, 2016]
5737 Quieted (bogus?) clang warnings about "absolute value has no effect"
5738 when PNG_USE_ABS is defined.
5739 Fixed offsets in contrib/intel/intel_sse.patch
5741 Version 1.6.26beta05 [October 6, 2016]
5742 Changed integer constant 4294967294 to unsigned 4294967294U in pngconf.h
5743 to avoid a signed/unsigned compare in the preprocessor.
5745 Version 1.6.26beta06 [October 7, 2016]
5746 Use zlib-1.2.8.1 inflateValidate() instead of inflateReset2() to
5747 optionally avoid ADLER32 evaluation.
5749 Version 1.6.26rc01 [October 12, 2016]
5752 Version 1.6.26 [October 20, 2016]
5753 Cosmetic change, "ptr != 0" to "ptr != NULL" in png.c and pngrutil.c
5754 Despammed email addresses (replaced "@" with " at ").
5756 Version 1.6.27beta01 [November 2, 2016]
5757 Restrict the new ADLER32-skipping to IDAT chunks. It broke iCCP chunk
5758 handling: an erroneous iCCP chunk would throw a png_error and reject the
5759 entire PNG image instead of rejecting just the iCCP chunk with a warning,
5760 if built with zlib-1.2.8.1.
5762 Version 1.6.27rc01 [December 27, 2016]
5763 Control ADLER32 checking with new PNG_IGNORE_ADLER32 option. Fixes
5764 an endless loop when handling erroneous ADLER32 checksums; bug
5765 introduced in libpng-1.6.26.
5766 Removed the use of a macro containing the pre-processor 'defined'
5767 operator. It is unclear whether this is valid; a macro that
5768 "generates" 'defined' is not permitted, but the use of the word
5769 "generates" within the C90 standard seems to imply more than simple
5770 substitution of an expression itself containing a well-formed defined
5772 Added ARM support to CMakeLists.txt (Andreas Franek).
5774 Version 1.6.27 [December 29, 2016]
5775 Fixed a potential null pointer dereference in png_set_text_2() (bug report
5776 and patch by Patrick Keshishian, CVE-2016-10087).
5778 Version 1.6.28rc01 [January 3, 2017]
5779 Fixed arm/aarch64 detection in CMakeLists.txt (Gianfranco Costamagna).
5780 Added option to Cmake build allowing a custom location of zlib to be
5781 specified in a scenario where libpng is being built as a subproject
5782 alongside zlib by another project (Sam Serrels).
5783 Changed png_ptr->options from a png_byte to png_uint_32, to accommodate
5786 Version 1.6.28rc02 [January 4, 2017]
5787 Added "include(GNUInstallDirs)" to CMakeLists.txt (Gianfranco Costamagna).
5788 Moved SSE2 optimization code into the main libpng source directory.
5789 Configure libpng with "configure --enable-intel-sse" or compile
5790 libpng with "-DPNG_INTEL_SSE" in CPPFLAGS to enable it.
5792 Version 1.6.28rc03 [January 4, 2017]
5793 Backed out the SSE optimization and last CMakeLists.txt to allow time for QA.
5795 Version 1.6.28 [January 5, 2017]
5798 Version 1.6.29beta01 [January 12, 2017]
5799 Readded "include(GNUInstallDirs)" to CMakeLists.txt (Gianfranco Costamagna).
5800 Moved SSE2 optimization code into the main libpng source directory.
5801 Configure libpng with "configure --enable-intel-sse" or compile
5802 libpng with "-DPNG_INTEL_SSE" in CPPFLAGS to enable it.
5803 Simplified conditional compilation in pngvalid.c, for AIX (Michael Felt).
5805 Version 1.6.29beta02 [February 22, 2017]
5806 Avoid conditional directives that break statements in pngrutil.c (Romero
5808 The contrib/examples/pngtopng.c recovery code was in the wrong "if"
5809 branches; the comments were correct.
5810 Added code for PowerPC VSX optimisation (Vadim Barkov).
5812 Version 1.6.29beta03 [March 1, 2017]
5813 Avoid potential overflow of shift operations in png_do_expand() (Aaron Boxer).
5814 Change test ZLIB_VERNUM >= 0x1281 to ZLIB_VERNUM >= 0x1290 in pngrutil.c
5815 because Solaris 11 distributes zlib-1.2.8.f that is older than 1.2.8.1,
5816 as suggested in zlib FAQ, item 24.
5817 Suppress clang warnings about implicit sign changes in png.c
5819 Version 1.6.29 [March 16, 2017]
5822 Version 1.6.30beta01 [April 1, 2017]
5823 Added missing "$(CPPFLAGS)" to the compile line for c.pic.o in
5824 makefile.linux and makefile.solaris-x86 (Cosmin).
5825 Revised documentation of png_get_error_ptr() in the libpng manual.
5826 Silence clang -Wcomma and const drop warnings (Viktor Szakats).
5827 Update Sourceforge URLs in documentation (https instead of http).
5829 Version 1.6.30beta02 [April 22, 2017]
5830 Document need to check for integer overflow when allocating a pixel
5831 buffer for multiple rows in contrib/gregbook, contrib/pngminus,
5832 example.c, and in the manual (suggested by Jaeseung Choi). This
5833 is similar to the bug reported against pngquant in CVE-2016-5735.
5834 Removed reference to the obsolete PNG_SAFE_LIMITS macro in the documentation.
5836 Version 1.6.30beta03 [May 22, 2017]
5837 Check for integer overflow in contrib/visupng and contrib/tools/genpng.
5838 Do not double evaluate CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR in CMakeLists.txt.
5839 Test CMAKE_HOST_WIN32 instead of WIN32 in CMakeLists.txt.
5840 Fix some URL in documentation.
5842 Version 1.6.30beta04 [June 7, 2017]
5843 Avoid writing an empty IDAT when the last IDAT exactly fills the
5844 compression buffer (bug report by Brian Baird). This bug was
5845 introduced in libpng-1.6.0.
5847 Version 1.6.30rc01 [June 14, 2017]
5850 Version 1.6.30rc02 [June 25, 2017]
5851 Update copyright year in pnglibconf.h, make ltmain.sh executable.
5852 Add a reference to the libpng.download site in README.
5854 Version 1.6.30 [June 28, 2017]
5857 Version 1.6.31beta01 [July 5, 2017]
5858 Guard the definition of _POSIX_SOURCE in pngpriv.h (AIX already defines it;
5859 bug report by Michael Felt).
5860 Revised pngpriv.h to work around failure to compile arm/filter_neon.S
5861 ("typedef" directive is unrecognized by the assembler). The problem
5862 was introduced in libpng-1.6.30beta01.
5863 Added "Requires: zlib" to libpng.pc.in (Pieter Neerincx).
5864 Added special case for FreeBSD in arm/filter_neon.S (Maya Rashish).
5866 Version 1.6.31beta02 [July 8, 2017]
5867 Added instructions for disabling hardware optimizations in INSTALL.
5868 Added "--enable-hardware-optimizations" configuration flag to enable
5869 or disable all hardware optimizations with one flag.
5871 Version 1.6.31beta03 [July 9, 2017]
5872 Updated CMakeLists.txt to add INTEL_SSE and MIPS_MSA platforms.
5873 Changed "int" to "png_size_t" in intel/filter_sse2.c to prevent
5874 possible integer overflow (Bug report by John Bowler).
5875 Quieted "declaration after statement" warnings in intel/filter_sse2.c.
5876 Added scripts/makefile-linux-opt, which has hardware optimizations enabled.
5878 Version 1.6.31beta04 [July 11, 2017]
5879 Removed one of the GCC-7.1.0 'strict-overflow' warnings that result when
5880 integers appear on both sides of a compare. Worked around the others by
5881 forcing the strict-overflow setting in the relevant functions to a level
5882 where they are not reported (John Bowler).
5883 Changed "FALL THROUGH" comments to "FALLTHROUGH" because GCC doesn't like
5885 Worked around some C-style casts from (void*) because g++ 5.4.0 objects
5887 Increased the buffer size for 'sprint' to pass the gcc 7.1.0 'sprint
5888 overflow' check that is on by default with -Wall -Wextra.
5890 Version 1.6.31beta05 [July 13, 2017]
5891 Added eXIf chunk support.
5893 Version 1.6.31beta06 [July 17, 2017]
5894 Added a minimal eXIf chunk (with Orientation and FocalLengthIn35mmFilm
5895 tags) to pngtest.png.
5897 Version 1.6.31beta07 [July 18, 2017]
5898 Revised the eXIf chunk in pngtest.png to fix "Bad IFD1 Directory" warning.

5910 Version 1.6.32beta01 [July 31, 2017]
5911 Avoid possible NULL dereference in png_handle_eXIf when benign_errors
5912 are allowed. Avoid leaking the input buffer "eXIf_buf".
5913 Eliminated png_ptr->num_exif member from pngstruct.h and added num_exif
5914 to arguments for png_get_eXIf() and png_set_eXIf().
5915 Added calls to png_handle_eXIf(() in pngread.c and png_write_eXIf() in
5916 pngwrite.c, and made various other fixes to png_write_eXIf().
5917 Changed name of png_get_eXIF and png_set_eXIf() to png_get_eXIf_1() and
5918 png_set_eXIf_1(), respectively, to avoid breaking API compatibility
5921 Version 1.6.32beta02 [August 1, 2017]
5922 Updated contrib/libtests/pngunknown.c with eXIf chunk.
5924 Version 1.6.32beta03 [August 2, 2017]

5940 Check length of all chunks except IDAT against user limit to fix an
5941 OSS-fuzz issue (Fixes CVE-2017-12652).
5943 Version 1.6.32beta08 [August 3, 2017]
5944 Check length of IDAT against maximum possible IDAT size, accounting
5945 for height, rowbytes, interlacing and zlib/deflate overhead.
5946 Restored png_get_eXIf_1() and png_set_eXIf_1(), because strlen(eXIf_buf)
5947 does not work (the eXIf chunk data can contain zeroes).
5949 Version 1.6.32beta09 [August 3, 2017]
5950 Require cmake-2.8.8 in CMakeLists.txt. Revised symlink creation,

5960 in the output but PASS for the libpng test.
5961 Require cmake-3.0.2 in CMakeLists.txt (Clifford Yapp).
5962 Fix "const" declaration info_ptr argument to png_get_eXIf_1() and the
5963 num_exif argument to png_get_eXIf_1() (Github Issue 171).

5973 Attempt to fix a UMR in png_set_text_2() to fix OSS-fuzz issue.
5974 Increase minimum zlib stream from 9 to 14 in png_handle_iCCP(), to account
5975 for the minimum 'deflate' stream, and relocate the test to a point
5976 after the keyword has been read.
5977 Check that the eXIf chunk has at least 2 bytes and begins with "II" or "MM".
5979 Version 1.6.32rc01 [August 18, 2017]
5980 Added a set of "huge_xxxx_chunk.png" files to contrib/testpngs/crashers,
5981 one for each known chunk type, with length = 2GB-1.
5982 Check for 0 return from png_get_rowbytes() and added some (size_t) typecasts
5983 in contrib/pngminus/*.c to stop some Coverity issues (162705, 162706,
5985 Renamed chunks in contrib/testpngs/crashers to avoid having files whose
5986 names differ only in case; this causes problems with some platforms
5987 (github issue #172).
5989 Version 1.6.32rc02 [August 22, 2017]
5990 Added contrib/oss-fuzz directory which contains files used by the oss-fuzz

6006 buffer for each row (Bug report by Andrew Church).
6007 Use current date (DATE) instead of release-date (RDATE) in last
6008 changed date of contrib/oss-fuzz files.

6013 png_calloc() that were png_uint_32 instead of png_alloc_size_t
6014 (Bug report by "irwir" in Github libpng issue #175).
6015 Use pnglibconf.h.prebuilt when building for ANDROID with cmake (Github
6016 issue 162, by rcdailey).
