[PATCH 3.8 016/133] vhost: fix total length when packets are too short

From: Kamal Mostafa
Date: Tue Apr 22 2014 - 17:39:31 EST


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

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

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

[ Upstream commit d8316f3991d207fe32881a9ac20241be8fa2bad0 ]

When mergeable buffers are disabled, and the
incoming packet is too large for the rx buffer,
get_rx_bufs returns success.

This was intentional in order for make recvmsg
truncate the packet and then handle_rx would
detect err != sock_len and drop it.

Unfortunately we pass the original sock_len to
recvmsg - which means we use parts of iov not fully
validated.

Fix this up by detecting this overrun and doing packet drop
immediately.

CVE-2014-0077
