Subject: [PATCH 10/14] KVM: emulate: avoid accessing NULL ctxt->memopp
Date: Fri, 24 Oct 2014 17:07:21 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1414163245-18555-11-git-send-email-pbonzini@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1414163245-18555-1-git-send-email-pbonzini@redhat.com>
A failure to decode the instruction can cause a NULL pointer access.
This is fixed simply by moving the "done" label as close as possible
to the return.
This fixes CVE-2014-8481.
Reported-by: Andy Lutomirski <luto@amacapital.net>

Fixes: 41061cdb98a0bec464278b4db8e894a3121671f5
