[0.6.1] - 2021-10-29

Changed

  • Security: Fix OOB read in splines rendering (#735 - CVE-2021-22563)
  • Security: Fix OOB copy (read/write) in out-of-order/multi-threaded decoding (#708 - CVE-2021-22564)
  • Fix segfault in djxl tool with --allow_partial_files flag (#781).
  • Fix border in extra channels when using upsampling (#796)

[0.6] - 2021-10-04

Added

  • API: New functions to decode extra channels: JxlDecoderExtraChannelBufferSize and JxlDecoderSetExtraChannelBuffer.
  • API: New function JxlEncoderInitBasicInfo to initialize JxlBasicInfo (only needed when encoding). NOTE: it is now required to call this function when using the encoder. Padding was added to the struct for forward compatibility.
  • API: Support for encoding oriented images.
  • API: FLOAT16 support in the encoder API.
  • Rewrite of the GDK pixbuf loader plugin. Added proper color management and animation support.
  • Rewrite of GIMP plugin. Added compression parameters dialog and switched to using the public C API.
  • Debian packages for GDK pixbuf loader (libjxl-gdk-pixbuf) and GIMP (libjxl-gimp-plugin) plugins.
  • cjxl/djxl support for stdin and stdout.

Changed

  • API: Renamed the field alpha_associated in JxlExtraChannelInfo to alpha_premultiplied, to match the corresponding name in JxlBasicInfo.
  • Improved the 2x2 downscaling method in the encoder for the optional color channel resampling for low bit rates.
  • Fixed: the combination of floating point original data, XYB color encoding, and Modular mode was broken (in both encoder and decoder). It now works. NOTE: this can cause the current encoder to write jxl bitstreams that do not decode with the old decoder. In particular this will happen when using cjxl with PFM, EXR, or floating point PSD input, and a combination of XYB and modular mode is used (which caused an encoder error before), e.g. using options like -m -q 80 (lossy modular), -d 4.5 or --progressive_dc=1 (modular DC frame), or default lossy encoding on an image where patches end up being used. There is no problem when using cjxl with PNG, JPEG, GIF, APNG, PPM, PGM, PGX, or integer (8-bit or 16-bit) PSD input.
  • libjxl static library now bundles skcms, fixing static linking in downstream projects when skcms is used.
  • Spline rendering performance improvements.
  • Butteraugli changes for less visual masking.

Added

  • API: New function to decode the image using a callback outputting a part of a row per call.
  • API: 16-bit float output support.
  • API: JxlDecoderRewind and JxlDecoderSkipFrames functions to skip more efficiently to earlier animation frames.
  • API: JxlDecoderSetPreferredColorProfile function to choose color profile in certain circumstances.
  • encoder: Adding center_x and center_y flags for more control of the tile order.
  • New encoder speeds lightning (1) and thunder (2).

Changed

  • Re-licensed the project under a BSD 3-Clause license. See the LICENSE and PATENTS files for details.
  • Full JPEG XL part 1 specification support: Implemented all the spec required to decode files to pixels, including cases that are not used by the encoder yet. Part 2 of the spec (container format) is final but not fully implemented here.

  • API: new decoder API in C, check the examples/ directory for its example usage. The C API is a work in progress and likely to change both in API and ABI in future releases.
