In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gve: Fix stats report corruption on queue count change
The driver and the NIC share a region in memory for stats reporting.
The NIC calculates its offset into this region based on the total size
of the stats region and the size of the NIC's stats.
When the number of queues is changed, the driver's stats region is
resized. If the queue count is increased, the NIC can write past
the end of the allocated stats region, causing memory corruption.
If the queue count is decreased, there is a gap between the driver
and NIC stats, leading to incorrect stats reporting.
This change fixes the issue by allocating stats region with maximum
size, and the offset calculation for NIC stats is changed to match
with the calculation of the NIC.
