+ CVE-2022-2132 cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2022-2132
+ A bug was introduced in DPDK 21.11.1 by the commit
+ 01e3dee29c02 ("vhost: fix unsafe vring addresses modifications").
+ This bug can cause a deadlock when vIOMMU is enabled and NUMA
+ reallocation of the virtqueues happen.
+ A fix has been posted and pushed to the DPDK 21.11 branch.
+ It can be found here:
+ https://patches.dpdk.org/project/dpdk/patch/20220725203206.427083-2-david.marchand@redhat.com/.

+ It should be noted that DPDK 21.11.0 does not benefit from the numerous
+ bug and CVE fixes addressed since its release.
