Is object-fit breaking some image aspect ratios in Chrome?

Viewed 856

I'm using object-fit:cover on some IMG tags within a wrapper div to try to fill a div with the image. I've noticed that some files seem to have their aspect ratios stretched, while others are displayed correclty. This occurs specifically in Chrome (I'm observing it on version 83). Display issue on Chrome It works ok on Edge (and Firefox): Display ok on Edge

I suspect this is a rendering bug in Chrome, and it may be triggered by the images having EXIF rotation metadata.

Here is a demonstration - https://codepen.io/mark_keo/pen/MWKXggz

  Image which breaks:<br/>
<div style="width:400px; height:300px; display:inline-block;">

So is there a mistake in the CSS/HTML or is this a browser bug?

It looks like this is a browser bug. I've reported it to the chromium bug tracker, and it's been reproduced by another tester. It appears it was introduced after Chrome 65.
