Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 19.11.9

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 05/19/21. So please
shout if anyone has objections.

Also note that after the patch there's a diff of the upstream commit vs the
patch applied to the branch. This will indicate if there was any rebasing
needed to apply to the stable branch. If there were code changes for rebasing
(ie: not only metadata diffs), please double check that the rebase was
correctly done.

Queued patches are on a temporary branch at:
https://github.com/cpaelzer/dpdk-stable-queue

This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://github.com/cpaelzer/dpdk-stable-queue/commit/1e46d09ef92abc9304b7b38aff0e20878bc1aaa5

Thanks.

Subject: [PATCH] app/eventdev: fix overflow in lcore list parsing

[ upstream commit 32d7dbf269be84cb906979d73ad81b40e28d377a ]

Tainted and unvalidated integer 'idx' used as an index, which may
lead to buffer overflow.

This patch fixed it.

Fixes: 89e5eb118017 ("app/testeventdev: add string parsing helpers")
