Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommufd: Set veventq_depth upper bound
iommufd_veventq_alloc() accepts any !0 veventq_depth from userspace, with an upper bound at U32_MAX.
This leaves a vulnerability where userspace can allocate excessively large queues to exhaust kernel memory reserves.
Cap the veventq_depth (maximum number of entries) to 1 << 19, matching the maximum number of entries in the SMMUv3 EVTQ (the largest use case today).
