Hmm. https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2023-3773 ** RESERVED ** This candidate has been reserved by an organization or individual that will use it when announcing a new security problem. When the candidate has been publicized, the details for this candidate will be provided. > This patch adds three missing nla_policy to avoid such bugs. > > Fixes: 90fea5a800c3 ("vdpa: device feature provisioning") > Fixes: 13b00b135665 ("vdpa: Add support for querying vendor statistics") > Fixes: ad69dd0bf26b ("vdpa: Introduce query of device config layout") > Signed-off-by: Lin Ma <[email protected]> I don't know how OOB triggers but this duplication is problematic I think: we are likely to forget again in the future.
