A flaw was found in all dpdk version 17.x.x before 17.11.8, 16.x.x before 16.11.10, 18.x.x before 18.11.4 and 19.x.x before 19.08.1 where a malicious master, or a container with access to vhostuser socket, can send specially crafted VRINGSETNUM messages, resulting in a memory leak including file descriptors. This flaw could lead to a denial of service condition.
A flaw was found in the vhost library in DPDK. Function vhostusersetinflightfd() does not validate msg->payload.inflight.numqueues, possibly causing out-of-bounds memory read/write. Any software using DPDK vhost library may crash as a result of this vulnerability.
A permissive list of allowed inputs flaw was found in DPDK. This issue allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service triggered by sending a crafted Vhost header to DPDK.
