KVM: Enhance the coalesced_mmio_write() parameter to avoid stack buffer overflow
PATCH 1/1 KVM: Enhance the coalesced_mmio_write() parameter to avoid stack buffer overflow
coalesced_mmio_write() is not check the len value, if len is negative, memcpy(ring->coalesced_mmio[ring->last].data, val, len); will cause stack buffer overflow.

Does len need to be int? Perhaps it should be unsigned int?

How can len be negative? It can only be between 1 and 8.

I have a truly marvellous patch that fixes the bug which this signature is too narrow to contain.
