From d9092f52d7e61dd1557f2db2400ddb430e85937e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Owen Hofmann Date: Thu, 27 Oct 2016 11:25:52 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] kvm: x86: Check memopp before dereference (CVE-2016-8630) Commit 41061cdb98 ("KVM: emulate: do not initialize memopp") removes a check for non-NULL under incorrect assumptions. An undefined instruction with a ModR/M byte with Mod=0 and R/M-5 (e.g. 0xc7 0x15) will attempt to dereference a null pointer here.
