Hi Fabio,
Have you looked into how browsers test against malicious attacks? IIRC they take valid images and change them in a "educatedly random" fashion. (i.e. all kinds of header corruption) As images are a common attack vector for malicious attacks I think that kind of testing is quite important.
I think you bring up a valid point. I'll make an entry in the todo list to add some invalid reads. Now how do I create a good cross selection of invalid jpeg, tiff, png, bmp, and pnm images? I'm open for suggestions. Christian
