Just off the top of my head, from the last 5 or so years there have been exploits for various systems/programs found using JPG, GIF, BMP, WMF, EMF, TIFF and PNG, and for non image formats, MP3, AVI and MOV. You'd have a pretty lousy media system if you removed all those formats.
Exploits are generally not inhertent to a format (in the case of WMF/EMF it was) , but are part of poorly written code, usually not doing boundary checking.
