A member of the Chaos Computer Club has shown that it's possible to reproduce someone's fingerprint, and thus break into systems protected by biometric fingerprint scanners, using just a photo of someone's finger. In this case, the member of the CCC managed to get the fingerprint of Germany's defense minister Ursula von der Leyen from a photo taken a press conference -- which, if the German government uses biometric access control systems, could be a bit of a security breach.
