No, if the guest plugs in his or her own USB flash memory then it should
be readable and writeable by the guest.

The problem is that the guest can read, write and erase the data on the system 
if the disk partitions are mounted.
Disk partitions gets mounted in subdirectories of /media, and they're both 
readable and writeable by the guest.

Exempt from /etc/fstab
/dev/sdb1       /media/Windows  ntfs-3g    
quiet,defaults,locale=en_US.utf8,umask=0     0 0
/dev/sdb5       /media/Music    ntfs-3g    
quiet,defaults,locale=en_US.utf8,umask=0     0 0
/dev/sdb6       /media/Movies    ntfs-3g    
quiet,defaults,locale=en_US.utf8,umask=0    0 0
