(blktrace: Buffer overflow)

    A crafted file could cause a buffer overflow in the ‘dev_map_read’
      function because the device and devno arrays are too small.
  
Impact :

    A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted file
      using blktrace, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code with
      the privileges of the process or a Denial of Service condition.
  
Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time."
