ImageMagick does seem to fix the issue, as long as you re-upload the affected images.

<p>I think this might have happened due to a Craft update. You can see the difference between these two blog posts</p>

<p>The last post image doesn't have the border and every image uploaded since gets a single px white border.</p>

With communication with Pixel & Tonic and this is caused by some older versions of the GD image library. Using ImageMagik will help and there should be a fix for the GD issue in an upcoming update of Craft CMS.

<p>I have my image transforms set to crop centre-centre with quality 100, but for some reason the images that are rendered have a high change of having 1 or 2 pixels of white added to at least one set of parallel sides.</p>

<p>See below for an example of what is being output (black background added after the fact for emphasis):</p>

<p><a href="https://i.sstatic.net/Ph8aT.jpg" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.sstatic.net/Ph8aT.jpg" alt="Example of issue"></a></p>

<p>The original image was a JPG with no white border. As far as I can tell, the issue is most prevalent when trying to crop in only one direction. For example, the the image above should only be being cropped on the top and bottom, as the width of the original is the same as the width of the outputted image.</p>

<p>Has anyone else come across this issue? If so, is there a fix?</p>

MAMP has Imagick bundled, but you need to edit your php.ini file to un-comment it.  Try that and see if the issue goes away.
