Revision Date: | 2016-11-16 | Version: | 1 | Title: | CVE-2015-8964 on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (xenial) - medium. | Description: | The tty_set_termios_ldisc function in drivers/tty/tty_ldisc.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5 allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory by reading a tty data structure. Tilman Schmidt and Sasha Levin discovered a use-after-free condition in the TTY implementation in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive information (kernel memory).
