The vulnerability allows a local user to cause a denial of service.
The vulnerability exists due to improper handling of stale bits in nft_set_pipapo_avx2 match functions in the netfilter pipapo set implementation when processing crafted set elements during avx2-based matching. A local user can load and reload a crafted pipapo set to cause a denial of service.
The issue occurs with avx2 matching functions and can cause a non-matching expired entry to be treated as a match after a set flush and reload operation.
