Hmmm no. This is not tin whiskers. Just dodgy soldering. :-)
Tin whiskers are extremely fine metallic growths which, in the wrong circumstances, could cause a short from the pin which they grow to an adjacent pin. Or if they become detached could be blown around by air movement and short some other pins elsewhere.
At a previous company that I worked at we were even requested to inspect the underside of (raised) floor tiles in some certain telecommunications facilities that we were based in to look for tell tale signs that the floor tiles may pose a tin whisker hazard to our equipment.
