Subject: [PATCH v3 0/3] KVM: guest_memfd: Fix signed offset+size goof
Date: Wed, 27 May 2026 19:11:14 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260528021117.107984-1-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
Fix a bug where KVM fails to reject a comically large offset into guest_memfd
if offset+size results in a signed, negative value. Add a testcase to prove
the bug, and to serve as a regression test.
Note, v1 and v2 was part of larger series.
v3:
- Use uoff_t, not u64. [the combined might of Sean and Ackerley]
- Explaining exactly what is broken. [Ackerley]
- Add a regression test.
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260522-fix-sev-gmem-post-populate-v2-0-3f196bfad5a1@google.com
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260522-fix-sev-gmem-post-populate-v1-0-9fc8d6437b65@google.com
