31- * Fixed the row width check in png_check_IHDR().
32- This corrected a bug that was specific to the 16-bit platforms,
33- and removed a spurious compiler warning from the 64-bit builds.
34- (Reported by Jacek Caban; fixed by John Bowler)
35- * Added eXIf chunk support to the push-mode reader in pngpread.c.
36- (Contributed by Chris Blume)
37- * Added contrib/pngexif for the benefit of the users who would like
38- to inspect the content of eXIf chunks.
39- * Added contrib/conftest/basic.dfa, a basic build-time configuration.
31+ * Modified the behaviour of colorspace chunks in order to adhere
32+ to the new precedence rules formulated in the latest draft of
33+ the PNG Specification.

41- * Fixed a preprocessor condition in pngread.c that broke build-time
42- configurations like contrib/conftest/pngcp.dfa.
43- (Contributed by John Bowler)
44- * Added CMake build support for LoongArch LSX.
45- (Contributed by GuXiWei)
46- * Fixed a CMake build error that occurred under a peculiar state of the
47- dependency tree. This was a regression introduced in libpng-1.6.41.
48- (Contributed by Dan Rosser)
49- * Marked the installed libpng headers as system headers in CMake.
50- (Contributed by Benjamin Buch)
51- * Updated the build support for RISCOS.
52- (Contributed by Cameron Cawley)
53- * Updated the makefiles to allow cross-platform builds to initialize
54- conventional make variables like AR and ARFLAGS.
55- * Added various improvements to the CI scripts in areas like version
56- consistency verification and text linting.
57- * Added version consistency verification to pngtest.c also.
35+ * Fixed a latent bug in `png_write_iCCP`.
36+ This would have been a read-beyond-end-of-malloc vulnerability,
37+ introduced early in the libpng-1.6.0 development, yet (fortunately!)
38+ it was inaccessible before the above-mentioned modification of the
39+ colorspace precedence rules, due to pre-existing colorspace checks.
