Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> vdpa: Add queue index attr to vdpa_nl_policy for nlattr length check<br /> <br /> The vdpa_nl_policy structure is used to validate the nlattr when parsing<br /> the incoming nlmsg. It will ensure the attribute being described produces<br /> a valid nlattr pointer in info-&gt;attrs before entering into each handler<br /> in vdpa_nl_ops.<br /> <br /> That is to say, the missing part in vdpa_nl_policy may lead to illegal<br /> nlattr after parsing, which could lead to OOB read just like CVE-2023-3773.<br /> <br /> This patch adds the missing nla_policy for vdpa queue index attr to avoid<br /> such bugs.
