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

net/sched: cls_flow: fix NULL pointer dereference on shared blocks

flow_change() calls tcf_block_q() and dereferences q->handle to derive
a default baseclass.  Shared blocks leave block->q NULL, causing a NULL
deref when a flow filter without a fully qualified baseclass is created
on a shared block.

Check tcf_block_shared() before accessing block->q and return -EINVAL
for shared blocks.  This avoids the null-deref shown below:
