ADDITIONAL SYSTEM INFORMATION :
java version "1.8.0_271"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_271-b09)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.271-b09, mixed mode)

Bug occurred on OSX as well as on CentOS.

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
The java.awt.image.RescaleOp class produces incorrect results for certain PNG images.

The operation is applied only to a subset of the source image, with greyed out background where a transparent background is expected.

With Oracle JDK 1.8.0_251 the results are still as expected.

This bug occurred with a PNG encoded source image with transparent background.


REGRESSION : Last worked in JDK 1.8.0_251 

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
See https://github.com/agawecki/java-rescale-op-test



EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
Rescale operation applied homogeneously to source image and leaves the transparent background intact.
ACTUAL -
The rescale operation is applied to a subset of the source image and garbles the transparent background.
