Verify that user applications are not using the kernel RPC message
handle to restrict them from directly attaching to guest OS on the
remote subsystem. This is a port of CVE-2019-2308 fix.

A port of the fix of what to what?
Is this to go only into a stable tree (if so what ones and what is the
id in Linus's tree), or is it to go into Linus's tree like normal (if so
how can this be a port)?
thanks,

I'm sorry for the confusion. It is a port of the original
Qualcomm/CodeAurora fix to the upstream driver.
See https://source.codeaurora.org/quic/la/kernel/msm-4.9/commit/?id=cc2e11eeb988964af72309f71b0fb21c11ed6ca9,

It's a port from QCI kernel, not a backport.
So I'd prefer for it to go into Linus's tree (and then be backported
to relevant -stable trees).

So this is a fix from 2019 that you never submitted upstream causing all
of these kernels to be vulnerable?
Shouldn't the porting process go the other way, upstream first and then
backport? That ensures we don't end up with 2 years old bugs like this
:(
Ugh.
What's going to change in the development process of this code to
prevent this from happening again?
thanks,

It seems there is some kind of confusion here.
Srinivas and Thierry have developed the fastrpc driver. It is not the
same as the driver developed by Qualcomm. However in this case it
suffers from the same problem as the original adsprpc driver..
We have submitted the fix as soon as we've noticed the issue.

Ah, that makes more sense, thanks.
So really, it's not the same CVE issue, aren't they fun? :)
