BPF JIT compilers in the Linux kernel through 5.11.12 have incorrect
computation of branch displacements, allowing them to execute arbitrary
code within the kernel context. This affects arch/x86/net/bpf_jit_comp.c
and arch/x86/net/bpf_jit_comp32.c.

Notes

Author Note
sbeattie this issue is priority medium for trusty/3.13 kernels, as unprivileged BPF was not yet available in the Linux kernel of that era.
