Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-09-08 02:47:02 UTC
A flaw was found in DPDK lib/vhost. Runt RX descriptors underflow the copy length in vhost enqueue on both split and packed rings. Unsigned subtraction underflow allows a full packet copy past a tiny descriptor window, which can crash a host vswitch such as OVS-DPDK.
