Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
DPDK's Vhost library (affected versions not specified)
Description
An out-of-bounds read issue was found in the checksum offload feature of DPDK's Vhost library. This allows an untrusted or compromised guest to crash the hypervisor's vSwitch by forging Virtio descriptors, causing out-of-bounds reads. An attacker with a malicious VM using a Virtio driver can crash the vhost-user side by sending a packet with a Tx checksum offload request and an invalid
csum start offset.Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
