CVE-2026-23086: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: vsock/virtio: cap TX credit to local buffer size T

A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's virtio vsock transport allowed a malicious remote peer to force excessive memory allocation by advertising a large buffer size and reading slowly, potentially causing the host to run out of memory. The fix introduces a helper function, virtio_transport_tx_buf_size(), that limits TX credit (the amount of data queued for a connection) to the minimum of both the peer's advertised buffer and the local system's own buffer size, ensuring one endpoint cannot force another to queue more data than its own configuration allows.
