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

net/sched: fq_pie: fix OOB access in the traffic path

the following script:

tc qdisc add dev eth0 handle 0x1 root fq_pie flows 2

tc qdisc add dev eth0 clsact

tc filter add dev eth0 egress matchall action skbedit priority 0x10002

ping 192.0.2.2 -I eth0 -c2 -w1 -q

produces the following splat:
