Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86: Fix KVM_GET_MSR_INDEX_LIST
Date: Thu, 02 Jul 2009 21:45:47 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4A4D0E6B.6090105@web.de> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1224 bytes --]

So far, KVM copied the emulated_msrs (only MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE) to a
wrong address in user space due to broken pointer arithmetic. This
caused subtle corruption up there (missing MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE had
probably no practical relevance). Moreover, the size check for the
user-provided kvm_msr_list forgot about emulated MSRs.
