i8254: fix out-of-bounds memory access in pit_ioport_read()
Due converting PIO to the new memory read/write api we no longer provide separate I/O region lenghts for read and write operations. As a result, reading from PIT Mode/Command register will end with accessing pit->channels with invalid index. Fix this by ignoring read from the Mode/Command register. This is CVE-2015-3214. Reported-by: Matt Tait <matttait@google.com> Fixes: 0505bcdec8228d8de39ab1a02644e71999e7c052 Cc: qemu-stable@nongnu.org Signed-off-by: Petr Matousek <pmatouse@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
