 Version 1.6.0beta12 [February 17, 2012]
-  Increase num_palette to invalid_index + 1, not to invalid_index.
+  Do not increase num_palette on invalid_index.
+  Relocated check for invalid palette index to pngrtran.c, after unpacking
+    the sub-8-bit pixels.
+  Fixed CVE-2011-3026 buffer overrun bug.  Deal more correctly with the test
+    on iCCP chunk length. Also removed spurious casts that may hide problems
+    on 16-bit systems.
