[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 72/79] input: limit kbd queue depth

[Michael Roth]

From: Gerd Hoffmann <address@hidden>

Apply a limit to the number of items we accept into the keyboard queue.

Impact: Without this limit vnc clients can exhaust host memory by
sending keyboard events faster than qemu feeds them to the guest.

Fixes: CVE-2017-8379
