[PATCH v1] vdpa: Complement vdpa_nl_policy for nlattr length check

From: Lin Ma
Date: Sun Jul 23 2023 - 04:05:23 EST


The vdpa_nl_policy structure is used to validate the nlattr when parsing
the incoming nlmsg. It will ensure the attribute being described produces
a valid nlattr pointer in info->attrs before entering into each handler
in vdpa_nl_ops.

That is to say, the missing part in vdpa_nl_policy may lead to illegal
nlattr after parsing, which could lead to OOB read just like CVE-2023-3773.

This patch adds three missing nla_policy to avoid such bugs.

Fixes: 90fea5a800c3 ("vdpa: device feature provisioning")
Fixes: 13b00b135665 ("vdpa: Add support for querying vendor statistics")
Fixes: ad69dd0bf26b ("vdpa: Introduce query of device config layout")
