In dosfstools before 4.0, if the third to last entry was written on a FAT12
filesystem with an odd number of clusters, the second to last entry would be
corrupted. This corruption may also lead to invalid memory accesses when the
corrupted entry becomes out of bounds and is used later (CVE-2015-8872).

In dosfstools before 4.0, the variable used for storing the FAT size (in bytes)
was an unsigned int. Since the size in sectors read from the BPB was not
sufficiently checked, this could end up being zero after multiplying it with
the sector size while some offsets still stayed excessive. Ultimately it would
cause segfaults when accessing FAT entries for which no memory was allocated
(CVE-2016-4804).");
