Subject: [PATCH] reds: Avoid buffer overflows handling monitor
configuration
It was also possible for a malicious client to set
VDAgentMonitorsConfig::num_of_monitors to a number larger
than the actual size of VDAgentMOnitorsConfig::monitors.
This would lead to buffer overflows, which could allow the guest to
read part of the host memory. This might cause write overflows in the
host as well, but controlling the content of such buffers seems
complicated.
