   * Tavis Ormandy of the Google Security Team discovered several problems
     in the TIFF library.  The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project
     identifies the following issues:

        tif_dirread.c
      - CVE-2006-3460: A heap overflow vulnerability was discovered in the
        jpeg decoder
      - CVE-2006-3461: A heap overflow exists in the PixarLog decoder
      - CVE-2006-3462: The NeXT RLE decoder was also vulnerable to a heap
        overflow
      - CVE-2006-3463: An infinite loop was discovered in
        EstimateStripByteCounts()
      - CVE-2006-3464: Multiple unchecked arithmetic operations were
        uncovered, including a number of the range checking operations
        deisgned to ensure the offsets specified in tiff directories are
        legitimate.
      - A number of codepaths were uncovered where assertions did not hold
        true, resulting in the client application calling abort()
      - CVE-2006-3465: A flaw was also uncovered in libtiffs custom tag
        support
