In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: ipset: Fix overflow before widen in the bitmap_ip_create() function.
When first_ip is 0, last_ip is 0xFFFFFFFF, and netmask is 31, the value of
an arithmetic expression 2 << (netmask - mask_bits - 1) is subject
to overflow due to a failure casting operands to a larger data type
before performing the arithmetic.
Note that it's harmless since the value will be checked at the next step.
