[PATCH for-8.1 3/3] hw/xen: prevent guest from binding loopback event ch


From: David Woodhouse
Subject: [PATCH for-8.1 3/3] hw/xen: prevent guest from binding loopback event channel to itself
Date: Tue, 1 Aug 2023 18:57:47 +0100

From: David Woodhouse <dwmw@amazon.co.uk>

Fuzzing showed that a guest could bind an interdomain port to itself, by
guessing the next port to be allocated and putting that as the 'remote'
port number. By chance, that works because the newly-allocated port has
type EVTCHNSTAT_unbound. It shouldn't.
