Getting AssertionError when trying to get orientation of certain image

[ilyai]

It works fine for most of the images, but I've found an image which get-orientation fails to process. The error message is the following:

node:assert:399
    throw err;
    ^

AssertionError [ERR_ASSERTION]: can only skip > 0 bytes, got "-4"

Here is the image which makes get-orientation to fail:

I'm using the latest version of the package: 1.1.2

Hello there! Thank you for reporting.

Just checked the image and noticed that image contains "empty" non-EXIF APP1 marker which expressed to 2 bytes segment length. Currently parser assumes APP1 segment length to be greater or equal than 8 bytes for non-EXIF APP1 segment to skip unnecessary bytes, but that 2 bytes segment length made parser to skip negative bytes (-6 bytes). So this resulted to that error.

I thought that I've tested get-orientation with many "corrupted" JPEG images, but wow. your case is not covered by that test images.
I can fix this issue and I will include this image to "corrupted" image set for testing. but hey, Can I use this image for testing? I have concerns about image licensing.

Unfortunately, I cannot guarantee an ETA at this moment but expected to be resolved in next 2 weeks - I've been super busy recent days and I don't have enough spare time to fix this issue 😭

Anyway thanks again for reporting this and this was super helpful for me. Stay tuned!
