[OpenJDK 2D-Dev] [12] RFR JDK-8212116: IIOException "tEXt chunk length is not proper" on opening png file

[Volker Simonis]

Hi,

I've just downported the fix for JDK-8212116 to 11u. A downport to
11.0.2 has been requested as well by adding the
("CPU19_01-critical-request") label to the JBS issue but it is beyond
my powers if this will be approved.

Regards,
Volker
