Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
bpf: Fix linked reg delta tracking when src_reg == dst_reg<br />
<br />
Consider the case of rX += rX where src_reg and dst_reg are pointers to<br />
the same bpf_reg_state in adjust_reg_min_max_vals(). The latter first<br />
modifies the dst_reg in-place, and later in the delta tracking, the<br />
subsequent is_reg_const(src_reg)/reg_const_value(src_reg) reads the<br />
post-{add,sub} value instead of the original source.<br />
<br />
This is problematic since it sets an incorrect delta, which sync_linked_regs()<br />
then propagates to linked registers, thus creating a verifier-vs-runtime<br />
mismatch. Fix it by just skipping this corner case.
