The vulnerabilities of the functions vhost_vsock_alloc_pkt() (drivers/vhost/vsock.c) and virtio_transport_free_pkt() (net/vmw_vsock/virtio_transport_common.c) in the Linux operating system’s IoTLB generic implementation for vhost and vringh kernels allow a hacker to induce a service failure.

The vulnerabilities of the functions vhostvsockallocpkt drivers/vhost/vsock.c and virtiotransportfreepkt net/vmwvsock/virtiotransportcommon.c in the Linux operating system’s IoTLB implementation are related to errors in resource allocation of large sizes. Exploiting these vulnerabilities can allo...
