[PATCH 2/2] KVM: Harden guest memory APIs against out-of-bounds accesses

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



When reading or writing a guest page, WARN and bail if offset+len would
result in a read to a different page so that KVM bugs are more likely to
be detected, and so that any such bugs are less likely to escalate to an
out-of-bounds access.  E.g. if userspace isn't using guard pages and the
target page is at the end of a memslot.

Note, KVM already hardens itself in similar APIs, e.g. in the "cached"
variants, it's just the vanilla APIs that are playing with fire.
