CWE-400

Description

A flaw was found in dpdk. This flaw allows a malicious vhost-user master to attach an unexpected number of fds as ancillary data to VHOST_USER_GET_INFLIGHT_FD / VHOST_USER_SET_INFLIGHT_FD messages that are not closed by the vhost-user slave. By sending such messages continuously, the vhost-user master exhausts available fd in the vhost-user slave process, leading to a denial of service.

Affected configurations

• dpdk data plane development kit (>= 20.02 < 22.03) • dpdk data plane development kit 19.11 • dpdk data plane development kit 22.03 • openvswitch openvswitch 2.13.0 • openvswitch openvswitch 2.15.0 • redhat openshift container platform 4.0
