Description

We've identified a potential issue in the parsing of IPTC data within the APP13 segment of JPEG files. It appears that the software might be misinterpreting certain sequences as the start of IPTC data, leading to inconsistent or incorrect metadata extraction.

The sequence in question is FF ED C7 30, found at the beginning of an APP13 segment in a JPEG file. This sequence signifies the start of the segment (FF ED) and its length (C7 30, which translates to 50,992 bytes in decimal).
The IPTC data is commonly stored within the APP13 segment, especially when processed with software like Adobe Photoshop.
A specific sequence within this segment, 1C 01 DA C7 0F BD, was initially thought to be an IPTC start header. However, upon closer inspection, it might be part of Photoshop-specific metadata (possibly 8BIM format) and not standard IPTC.
IrfanView successfully reads the IPTC tags from the same files without issues, suggesting that the problem might lie in how the APP13 segment is parsed.

Not sure what the issue is. ImageMagick extracts the IPTC profile but does not extract meta-data from the profile, instead preferring EXIF. You can view the IPTC profile with this command:

$ magick iptc_image.jpg iptcData.iptc
$ cat iptcData.iptc

@urban-warrior I didn't mention that the problem originally occurred while using Magick.NET. When I used the command you suggested magick indeed saved proper iptc profile, however when calling C API GetImageProfile the returned data contains some (I suppose) photoshop specific information in addition to iptc values which could be causing problems for Magick.NET which is parsing iptc tags and values internally. I attach the result of API call.
