Oh, that’s actually way worse than I thought! It’s not that these apps have some kind of undo feature or are aiming for non-destructive editing, and that’s not what users expect - the apps actually are attempting to perform redaction and they’re poorly implemented.
Kudos on the name by the way, I love a good tight pun name for a vulnerability.
- olliej 4y agoI can't speak for this windows tool, but for the android image editor the editor _was_ doing the correct thing. Then the underlying IO library changed in breaking way (and diverged from other APIs using the same mode strings) to not truncate when opening existing files.
- HALtheWise 4y agoThe API was (accidentally?) changed long before the Android tool was written, if I understand correctly. Depending on your point of view, that means it's either a poorly designed and documented API, an incorrect API that doesn't match the documentation, or a testing failure during development of the app.
- Retr0id 4y agoI think the API change came after the tool was written, but not by long (it's hard to be sure, since Markup is closed-source).
