+\subsection{Security Considerations}\label{sec:Device Types / Memory Balloon Device / Security Considerations}
+
+In environments where the device is not trusted, such as
+confidential computing, the balloon device presents several
+security concerns.
+
+\subsubsection{Information Leakage}\label{sec:Device Types / Memory Balloon Device / Security Considerations / Information Leakage}
+
+When the driver inflates the balloon, the addresses of the pages
+are communicated to the device. On some systems, the page contents
+themselves are also accessible to the device. These pages may
+contain sensitive data from previous use by the guest. In systems
+where the device is untrusted, the driver should sanitize pages
+before inflating them.
+
+Free page hinting and free page reporting similarly expose
+information about which pages are free, and in the case of
+reporting, may make page contents accessible to the device. Memory
+statistics reporting exposes guest memory usage patterns.
+
+\subsubsection{Data Integrity}\label{sec:Device Types / Memory Balloon Device / Security Considerations / Data Integrity}
+
+When the device is untrusted, the driver cannot rely on the device
+to correctly initialize pages. An untrusted device can report a
+non-zero used length for VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_DEVICE_INIT_REPORTED
+without actually initializing the corresponding pages. If the
+driver treats such pages as initialized (e.g., marking them as
+zeroed), this could lead to information leakage between guest
+processes or other security violations.
+
+Drivers operating in environments with untrusted devices are
+expected to avoid negotiating
+VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_DEVICE_INIT_REPORTED, and to initialize
+all pages themselves.
+
+\subsubsection{Denial of Service}\label{sec:Device Types / Memory Balloon Device / Security Considerations / Denial of Service}
+
+A malicious device could set \field{num_pages} to an
+unreasonably large value, causing the driver to surrender most
+of the guest's memory. Drivers should apply reasonable limits
+and not inflate the balloon to the point where the guest
+becomes unable to function.

+
+When VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_DEVICE_INIT_ON_INFLATE is negotiated, the

+
+The driver appends a device-writable bitmap buffer to each inflate
+descriptor chain, after the PFN outbuf. The bitmap contains one
+bit per balloon page (4KB), where bit N corresponds to the Nth PFN
+in the inflate request (0-indexed). Bit N is stored as bit (N mod 8)
+of byte (N / 8), with bit 0 being the least significant bit.
