[Xen-devel] [PATCH v2] Fix ioreq-server event channel vulnerability



The code in hvm_send_assist_req_to_ioreq_server() and hvm_do_resume() uses
an event channel port number taken from the page of memory shared with the
emulator. This allows an emulator to corrupt values that are then blindly
used by Xen, leading to assertion failures in some cases. Moreover, in the
case of the default ioreq server the page remains in the guest p2m so a
malicious guest could similarly corrupt those values.

This patch changes the afforementioned functions to get the event channel
port number from an internal structure and also adds an extra check to
hvm_send_assist_req_to_ioreq_server() which will crash the domain should the
guest or an emulator corrupt the port number in the shared page.

v2:
 - hvm_wait_for_io() now returns a bool_t as suggested by Andrew Cooper
