In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: x86: Fix stack-out-of-bounds memory access from ioapic_write_indirect()
KASAN reports the following issue:
BUG: KASAN: stack-out-of-bounds in kvm_make_vcpus_request_mask+0x174/0x440 [kvm]

The problem appears to be that ‘vcpu_bitmap’ is allocated as a single long
on stack and it should really be KVM_MAX_VCPUS long. We also seem to clear
the lower 16 bits of it with bitmap_zero() for no particular reason (my
guess would be that ‘bitmap’ and ‘vcpu_bitmap’ variables in
kvm_bitmap_or_dest_vcpus() caused the confusion: while the later is indeed
16-bit long, the later should accommodate all possible vCPUs).
