A Gentoo Linux Security Advisory reports:

Tavis Ormandy of the Gentoo Linux Security Audit Team
discovered a stack based buffer overflow in the libTIFF
library when reading a TIFF image with a malformed
BitsPerSample tag.
Successful exploitation would require the victim to open
a specially crafted TIFF image, resulting in the execution
of arbitrary code.
