Details

Description:
In some cases the current libnvme version handles buffer allocations incorrectly. This leads to crashes in other packages where libnvme/libblockdev is a requirement, like udisks2 and nvme-cli.

The latest upstream commits [1][2] fix this issue.

Additional info:
* package version(s): libnvme 1.6-1

Steps to reproduce using udisks2:
- run `udisksd` several times until a stack smashing error occurs
