Comment (by Pixeldrummer):

 Thanks for your reply. Am not running multisite and this problem only
 shows up on sites with the X-theme active and with WP version 4.5.1. Had
 no problems before this update with any file/image uploads. There was some
 other weirdness, all directly pointing to media library and image
 handling, not seen before the WP update to 4.5.

 Replying to [comment:5 Clorith]:
 > There's also the `upload_size_limit_filter()` which defaults to about
 1.5MB, granted this function is (by default) only invoked on multisite,
 what kind of setup are you running on your sites?

 > I did test and I can upload images just fine on 4.5 and 4.5.1, but I get
 that error if I intentionally lower the limit on my site in multisite for
 testing purposes.
