Last modified

CVE-2015-4004 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The OZWPAN driver in the Linux kernel through 4.0.5 relies on an untrusted length field during packet parsing, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory or cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and system crash) via a crafted packet.. EPSS estimates a 8.15% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
