Did you write this image using libtiff? It would be best if libtiff would always write bytes like this with a zero value, so I would consider this a (minor) bug. (Never write data from uninitialized buffers, to prevent data leakage and security/privacy issues and all that stuff.)

This behavior also tends to annoy memory check tools like valgrind, making it more difficult to dignose issues in libtiff, and its dependent application.
