Stefan Walter found that udisks2, a service to access and manipulate storage devices, could cause denial of service via system crash if a corrupted or specially crafted ext2/3/4 device or image was mounted, which could happen automatically on certain environments.
For Debian 8 jessie, these problems have been fixed in version 2.1.3-5+deb8u1.
We recommend that you upgrade your udisks2 packages.
