Hi!

Libtiff is vulnerable to another exploitable segfault, see

  http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=843

for details.

However, please don't take the patch attached to that bug report, it's
incomplete. Upstream CVS has the complete patch, you can also grab it
from

  http://bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=58276

For Sid you should probably just package the new upstream version, but
for Sarge the patch is fine (I already ported it to 3.6.1 for Ubuntu's
releases and tested it).

Thanks,

Martin
