73  <li> Various memory buffer access fixes.
74
75  <li> Fix handling when writing RGBA jpeg compressed imagery
76  (<A HREF="http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/ticket/4732">http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/ticket/4732</A>).
77
78  <li> Fix to work properly with IJG JPEG 7+.
79
80  <li> New functions TIFFFieldTag(), TIFFFieldName(),
81  TIFFFieldDataType(), TIFFFieldPassCount(), TIFFFieldReadCount(),
82  TIFFFieldWriteCount() to use as external accessors for the opaque
83  type TIFFField.
84
85  <li> Fix bug rewriting image tiles in a compressed
86  file (<A HREF="http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/ticket/4771">http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/ticket/4771</A>).
87

100  <li> tiff2pdf: Fail when TIFFSetDirectory() fails.  This prevents
101  core dumps or perhaps even arbitrary code execution when processing
102  a corrupt input file (CVE-2012-3401).
103
104  <li> tiff2pdf: Fix two places where t2p_error didn't get set after a
105  malloc failure.  No crash risk AFAICS, but the program might not
106  report exit code 1 as desired.
