    Hanno Bck discovered that dosfstools incorrectly handled certain malformed filesystems. A local attacker
    could use this issue to cause dosfstools to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute
    arbitrary code.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.
