Any attack here is going to be OS-specific - a vulnerability in a 
filesystem used by Windows is massively unlikely to be present in Linux. 
If your goal is to compromise a Linux device then the attack surface 
available to you (right now) is everything that's present in Linux. For 
removable devices I'd argue that anything other than exfat and vfat are 
probably uncommon, but could be convinced that ext4 and xfs made sense 
as well (and maybe ntfs since I assume some people do want to transfer 
data on USB hard drives)
