Debian Linux Security Advisory 3166-1 - Jose Duart of the Google Security Team discovered a buffer overflow in in e2fsprogs, a set of utilities for the ext2, ext3, and ext4 file systems. This issue can possibly lead to arbitrary code execution if a malicious device is plugged in, the system is configured to automatically mount it, and the mounting process chooses to run fsck on the device's malicious filesystem.
