And now, there's more:

A buffer overflow has been found in the t2p_write_pdf_string function in
tiff2pdf, which can been triggered with a TIFF file containing a
DocumentName tag with UTF-8 characters. An additional buffer overflow
has been found in the handling of the parameters in tiffsplit.

Solution: update to 3.8.2 and apply the following patches:
http://www.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/media-libs/tiff/files/tiff-3.8.2-tiffsplit.patch
http://www.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/media-libs/tiff/files/tiff-buffer.patch
