Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-2376:
-----------------------------------------
The cause of both regressions is an error in an improvement of the detection of
the end of inline images which occurs when this image is at the end of a
stream. PDF Inline images are a constant source of pain, because the
specification is problematic and so we're using heuristics.
