Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH 2/5] multiboot: Check validity of mh_header_addr
Date: Wed, 14 Mar 2018 18:32:10 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180314173213.18563-3-kwolf@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180314173213.18563-1-kwolf@redhat.com>

I couldn't find a case where this prevents something bad from happening
that isn't already caught by other checks, but let's err on the safe
side and check that mh_header_addr is as expected.
