9ae3a8
A broken or malicious guest can submit more requests than the virtqueue
9ae3a8
size permits.
9ae3a8
9ae3a8
The guest can submit requests without bothering to wait for completion
9ae3a8
and is therefore not bound by virtqueue size.  This requires reusing
9ae3a8
vring descriptors in more than one request, which is incorrect but
9ae3a8
possible.  Processing a request allocates a VirtQueueElement and
9ae3a8
therefore causes unbounded memory allocation controlled by the guest.
9ae3a8
9ae3a8
Exit with an error if the guest provides more requests than the
9ae3a8
virtqueue size permits.  This bounds memory allocation and makes the
9ae3a8
buggy guest visible to the user.
9ae3a8
9ae3a8
This patch fixes CVE-2016-5403.
