Reject such commands outright by returning\nfailure.\n\nValidate command_size before calling get_mfa_inbound() to avoid leaking\nan I2O message frame: reading INBOUND_QUEUE_PORT dequeues a hardware\nframe from the controller's free pool, and returning without a\ncorresponding set_mfa_inbound() call would permanently exhaust it.\n\nAdditionally, clamp command_size to I2O_COMMAND_SIZE before the\nmemcpy_toio() so the MMIO write stays within the I2O message frame,\nconsistent with the clamping already performed by outgoing_message_size()\nfor the header field.","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-05-27T12:57:30.247+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-10-15T01:20:18.166+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"Vendor
