In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

netfilter: nf_tables: fix dst corruption in same register operation

For lshift and rshift, the shift operations are performed in a loop over
32-bit words. The loop calculates the shifted value and write it to dst,
and then immediately reads from src to calculate the carry for the next
iteration. Because src and dst could point to the same memory location,
the carry is incorrectly calculated using the newly modified dst value
instead of the original src value.

Adding a temporary local variable to cache the original value before
writing to dst and using it for the carry calculation solves the
problem. In addition, partial overlap is rejected from control plane for
all kind of operations including byteorder. This was tested with the
following bytecode:

table test_table ip flags 0 use 1 handle 1
ip test_table test_chain use 3 type filter hook input prio 0 policy accept packets 0 bytes 0 flags 1
ip test_table test_chain 2
[ immediate reg 1 0x44332211 0x88776655 ]
[ bitwise reg 1 = ( reg 1 << 0x08000000 ) ]
[ cmp eq reg 1 0x66443322 0x00887766 ]
[ counter pkts 0 bytes 0 ]
ip test_table test_chain 4 3
