[ 017/171 ] vhost/net: fix heads usage of ubuf_info

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

 



3.6.11.2 stable review patch.
If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: "Michael S. Tsirkin" <mst@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 46aa92d1ba162b4b3d6b7102440e459d4e4ee255 ]

ubuf info allocator uses guest controlled head as an index,
so a malicious guest could put the same head entry in the ring twice,
and we will get two callbacks on the same value.
To fix use upend_idx which is guaranteed to be unique.
