e1000: Avoid infinite loop in processing transmit descriptor (CVE-2015-6815)
While processing transmit descriptors, it could lead to an infinite loop if 'bytes' was to become zero; Add a check to avoid it. [The guest can force 'bytes' to 0 by setting the hdr_len and mss descriptor fields to 0. --Stefan] Signed-off-by: P J P <pjp@fedoraproject.org> Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Thomas Huth <thuth@redhat.com> Message-id: 1441383666-6590-1-git-send-email-stefanha@redhat.com
