<p>A crafted file could cause a buffer overflow in the dev_map_read
function because the device and devno arrays are too small.

<impact type="normal">
<p>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.
</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>All blktrace users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
