This isn’t something I’ve seen before, so I suspect the image could have some more-modern type of encoding that has the rotation as something like metadata, that our admittedly old infrastructure might not handle well.
We use Drupal core’s user pictures and image styles for resizing, so there is some chance that this is a general Drupal issue. It would be good to test the same image on a fresh install of Drupal.
We are upgrading our site in the coming months, so I expect that to resolve this issue, if it is due to outdated image libraries. Regardless, the same image that got rotated will be needed to test this, since it isn’t reproducible with a simple oversized image.
