CVE-2020-14374

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions dpdk versions prior to 18.11.10 dpdk versions prior to 19.11.5

Description A flaw was found in the copy data function due to flawed bounds checking, leading to a buffer overflow. This allows an attacker in a virtual machine to write arbitrary data to any address in the vhost crypto application, posing a threat to data confidentiality and integrity, as well as system availability.

Recommendations For versions prior to 18.11.10, update to version 18.11.10 or later. For versions prior to 19.11.5, update to version 19.11.5 or later. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the vhost crypto application until a patch is available.
