Subject: Commit missing in stable kernels: KVM: Fix stack-out-of-bounds read in write_mmio
Date: Tue, 9 Jan 2018 20:49:16 +0000 (UTC) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <765010266.49818.1515530956179.JavaMail.zimbra@efficios.com> (raw)
Hi Greg,
commit e39d200fa "KVM: Fix stack-out-of-bounds read in write_mmio"
is upstream in latest 4.15-rc tags, is also in long term
3.16.52+ and 3.2.97+ stable kernels, and in latest Fedora kernels,
but is missing from 4.14, 4.9, 4.4, 4.1 stable branches.
I think the patch author missed the CC to stable@vger.kernel.org
It might be good to consider picking it up into the stable kernels
to ensure long term stable and distro kernels don't diverge too much
from more recent stable kernel branches.
Thanks,
Mathieu
