Subject: [PATCH] lguest: fix out-by-one error in address checking.
Date: Wed, 27 May 2015 10:59:26 +0930 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87ioben6yx.fsf@rustcorp.com.au> (raw)
This bug has been there since day 1; addresses in the top guest
physical page weren't considered valid. You could map that page (the
check in check_gpte() is correct), but if a guest tried to put a
pagetable there we'd check that address manually when walking it, and
kill the guest.
