CVE-2024-6505

A flaw was found in the virtio-net device in QEMU. When enabling the RSS
feature on the virtio-net network card, the indirections_table data within
RSS becomes controllable. Setting excessively large values may cause an
index out-of-bounds issue, potentially resulting in heap overflow access.
This flaw allows a privileged user in the guest to crash the QEMU process
on the host.
