--- title: "CVE-2015-8575\n | Ubuntu" description: Ubuntu is an open source software operating system that runs from the desktop, to the cloud, to all your internet connected things. url: https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2015-8575?format=md keywords: index, follow --- # CVE-2015-8575 Publication date 17 December 2015 Last updated 4 July 2026 --- Ubuntu priority **Medium** [Why this priority?](https://ubuntu.com/security/cves/about#priority ) ## Cvss 3 Severity Score **4.0 · Medium** [Score breakdown](https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2015-8575?format=md#impact-score) Toggle side navigation ## Description The sco\_sock\_bind function in net/bluetooth/sco.c in the Linux kernel before 4.3.4 does not verify an address length, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory and bypass the KASLR protection mechanism via a crafted application. ### From the Ubuntu Security Team David Miller discovered that the Bluetooth implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly validate the socket address length for Synchronous Connection-Oriented (SCO) sockets. A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive information.
