Crash when working with EXIF profile in JPG image

[vanekjar]

When trying to delete profile data from an image the program consumes all the available memory and then is killed by OOM killer.

Code: Select all

convert image_EXIF.jpg +profile "*" output.jpg

Testing image: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/155 ... e_EXIF.jpg

Tested in current version 6.8.9-7
It worked correcty in version 6.8.9-3

convert +profile "*" image_EXIF.jpg

Bad syntax. No output image. Nevertheless, this does not complete for me on IM 6.8.9.6 Q16 Mac OSX

Code: Select all

convert image_EXIF.jpg +profile "*" test.jpg

But this works just fine.

Code: Select all

convert -define profile:skip="*" image_EXIF.jpg test.jpg

So does this.

Code: Select all

convert image_EXIF.jpg -strip test.jpg

I just committed a patch to fix this. This will be available in ImageMagick 6.8.9-8 Beta tomorrow.

Could you please post the Revision ID's associated with this change?

Edit: Looks like it may be http://trac.imagemagick.org/changeset/16359 actually.

you can use

Code: Select all

-strip

instead. I had the same problem.

Same issue here.
MacOSX 10.9; ImageMagick @6.8.9-7_0+x11 installed via macports.

For PNG and JPG files including EXIF meta data, I need to strip meta data, using 'mogrify -strip file.ext' to get convert to work, without crash.
My usecase: Web-CMS TYPO3 is set to use imagemagick to convert/scale images. If I running CMS installation with latest ImageMagick 6.8.9-7, any changes for size of existing images - which includes EXIF meta data - ends up in a memory-crash for hole operating-system.

You need IM 6.8.9.8 beta to get +profile working again as per the note above from dlemstra.

THX. Current IM 6.8.9.8 beta solves the problem.
Wasn't easy to install, using macports.
