Remove EXIF

Category: Image

Status: Registered and callable in the CyberChef 11.3.0 compatibility inventory.

Input / output: ArrayBuffer → byteArray

Background: https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Exif

What it does

Removes EXIF data from a JPEG image. EXIF data embedded in photos usually contains information about the image file itself as well as the device used to create it.

Note

Status here means the operation name is implemented and callable. It does not by itself promise byte-for-byte parity for every upstream option. See Compatibility and current status for the verified scope and known boundaries.

Arguments and options

This operation takes no positional recipe arguments.

Recipe template

Important

This is a call template built from the documented defaults. Replace placeholder values such as empty keys, paths, patterns, or lookup data before running it.

from pychef import bake

input_value = b"example"
args = []
result = bake(input_value, ['Remove EXIF'])
print(result)

Pipeline example

from pychef import Pipeline

args = []
transform = Pipeline().then('Remove EXIF')
result = transform(b"example")

Dedicated operation module

The registered entry point lives in pychef.operations.by_operation.remove_exif. Direct calls receive the input value and a positional argument tuple:

from pychef.operations.by_operation.remove_exif import run

result = run(b"example", tuple([]))

pychef.operations.by_operation.remove_exif.run(value, args)

Run this operation using its shared internal implementation.

Parameters:

value (str | bytes)
args (Sequence[Any])

Return type:

str | bytes
