Pointers to receive-buffer packets sent by Hyper-V are used within the

packet fields after they are processed by the guest. To defend against
these scenarios, copy (sections of) the incoming packet after validating
their length and offset fields in netvsc_filter_receive(). In this way,
the packet can no longer be modified by the host.
