Changes since the last public release (1.6.19):
Version 1.6.20beta01 [November 20, 2015]
Avoid potential pointer overflow/underflow in png_handle_sPLT() and
png_handle_pCAL() (Bug report by John Regehr).
Version 1.6.20beta02 [November 23, 2015]
Fixed incorrect implementation of png_set_PLTE() that uses png_ptr
not info_ptr, that left png_set_PLTE() open to the CVE-2015-8126
vulnerability.
Version 1.6.20beta03 [November 26, 2015]
Backported tests from libpng-1.7.0beta69.
Version 1.6.20rc01 [November 26, 2015]
Fixed an error in handling of bad zlib CMINFO field, found by American
Fuzzy Lop, reported by Brian Carpenter. inflate() doesn't immediately
fault a bad CMINFO field; instead a 'too far back' error happens later
(at least some times). pngfix failed to limit CMINFO to the allowed
values but then assumed that window_bits was in range, triggering an
assert. The bug is mostly harmless; the file can't be fixed.
