VMBus message handlers (channel_message_table) receive a pointer to 'struct vmbus_channel_message_header' and cast it to a structure of their choice, which is sometimes longer than the header. We, however, don't check that the message is long enough so in case hypervisor screws up we'll be accessing memory beyond what was allocated for temporary buffer. Previously, we used to always allocate and copy 256 bytes from message page to temporary buffer but this is hardly better: in case the message is shorter than we expect we'll be trying to consume garbage as some real data and no memory guarding technique will be able to identify an issue. Introduce 'min_payload_len' to 'struct vmbus_channel_message_table_entry' and check against it in vmbus_on_msg_dpc(). Note, we can't require the exact length as new hypervisor versions may add extra fields to messages, we only check that the message is not shorter than we expect.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
