| Changes from version 1.6.56 to version 1.6.57 |
| --------------------------------------------- |
| |
| * Fixed CVE-2026-34757 (medium severity): |
| Use-after-free in `png_set_PLTE`, `png_set_tRNS` and `png_set_hIST` |
| leading to corrupted chunk data and potential heap information disclosure. |
| Also hardened the append-style setters (`png_set_text`, `png_set_sPLT`, |
| `png_set_unknown_chunks`) against a theoretical variant of the same |
| aliasing pattern. |
| (Reported by Iv4n <Iv4n550@users.noreply.github.com>.) |
| * Fixed integer overflow in rowbytes computation in read transforms. |
