[PATCH v2] ati-vga: check mm_index before recursive call
Posted by P J P 3 years, 11 months ago
From: Prasad J Pandit <pjp@fedoraproject.org>

While accessing VGA registers via ati_mm_read/write routines,
a guest may set 's->regs.mm_index' such that it leads to infinite
recursion. Check mm_index value to avoid it.

We usually log unexpected guest accesses with:

           } else {
               qemu_log_mask(LOG_GUEST_ERROR, ...

Ditto:

           } else {
               qemu_log_mask(LOG_GUEST_ERROR, ...

Suggested-by: BALATON Zoltan <balaton@eik.bme.hu>

therefore I think this should work but someone else should give 
Reviewed-by to cross check this.

So this is a denial of service security issue. Is there any CVE
assigned for this ?

Yes, just sent a revised patch v3 with above changes and CVE-ID.

Thank you.
