Can't upload bmp images on Firefox but I can with Chrome
-
Hello, I'm reproducing this bug right here on this website.
Basically, I am unable to change my profile picture when I use Firefox but I can with Chrome.
When I upload it using Firefox I get "input file contains unsupported image format" error
When I use Chrome I get no such error and I can upload the image fine and as you can see my current profile picture is reflecting that (Edit 1: was true at the time of writing this post, I've now changed it so something else).
Keep in mind I had to compress the image down for this forum because on my forum I could have uploaded the uncompressed image with Chrome due to different settings our forum has.
On our instance of nodebb at plutonium.pw I got an obscure error message instead which did not tell me anything on Firefox.
This is the file in question: https://mega.nz/file/lJJQhZgQ#hmoxBlZ1_Fpj1POqP9VKcUht88CO5jGbayHtS61BpeM
(Compressed)Chrome Version 123.0.6312.60 (Official Build) (64-bit) Windows 10
Firefox 104.0.1 64-bit Windows 10

Well, I figured since all other browsers that come to mind are a fork of Chrome I shouldn't test them.
I repeated the process on Edge version 123.0.2420.65 (Official build) (64-bit) and it works as I expected it to work.
To recap, Chromium-based browsers seem to work while Firefox has this issue with bmp images.

If it helps I can upload the original uncompressed image so someone could look at both.
Although, since I could repo on our instance of nodebb over at plutonium with both the compressed and uncompressed image, the bug seems to be caused by something unrelated to the compression itself
