I didn't mean that console would be a requirement for the exploit, and indeed I overlooked the two-NICs scenario. Thanks for your feedback...I feared I was missing something ;)

That said, I have been thinking if ensuring a tag on the port after resize/migration operation suffices to mitigate the exploitation.

Ihar identified snippet of code [1] as potential contentious, and I wonder if along location [2] would be the only two areas required to be hardened.

Thoughts?
Thanks,
Armando
