[PATCH 43/47] hw/block/fdc: Kludge missing floppy drive to fix CVE-2021-


From: Michael Roth
Subject: [PATCH 43/47] hw/block/fdc: Kludge missing floppy drive to fix CVE-2021-20196
Date: Tue, 14 Dec 2021 18:01:21 -0600

From: Philippe Mathieu-Daudé <philmd@redhat.com>

Guest might select another drive on the bus by setting the
DRIVE_SEL bit of the DIGITAL OUTPUT REGISTER (DOR).
The current controller model doesn't expect a BlockBackend
to be NULL. A simple way to fix CVE-2021-20196 is to create
an empty BlockBackend when it is missing. All further
accesses will be safely handled, and the controller state
machines keep behaving correctly.
