+# Unfortunately, on Ubuntu 20.04, the libini parser uses an onstack char[]
+# array to store value that it parse, and it passes the address of this array
+# to the parse_cfgopt. The getstr function returns its argument, which is
+# stored in the cli_params structure by the D_SU parsing code. By the time we
+# get around to interpreting this string, of course, the stack array has long
+# since lost scope and is now full of garbage. If we're lucky, the value will
+# cause a number interpretation failure. If not, the fs is configured with
+# garbage geometry.
+#
+# Either way, set up a config file to exploit this vulnerability so that we
+# can prove that current mkfs works correctly.
