From: Mauro Matteo Cascella <mcasc...@redhat.com> An assertion failure issue was found in the code that processes network packets while adding data fragments into the packet context. It could be abused by a malicious guest to abort the QEMU process on the host. This patch replaces the affected assert() with a conditional statement, returning false if the current data fragment exceeds max_raw_frags.
