Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
vsock/virtio: fix potential unbounded skb queue<br />
<br />
virtio_transport_inc_rx_pkt() checks vvs->rx_bytes + len > vvs->buf_alloc.<br />
<br />
virtio_transport_recv_enqueue() skips coalescing for packets<br />
with VIRTIO_VSOCK_SEQ_EOM.<br />
<br />
If fed with packets with len == 0 and VIRTIO_VSOCK_SEQ_EOM,<br />
a very large number of packets can be queued<br />
because vvs->rx_bytes stays at 0.<br />
<br />
Fix this by estimating the skb metadata size:<br />
<br />
(Number of skbs in the queue) * SKB_TRUESIZE(0)
