Google · Android · CVE-2015-1525
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions:
Android versions prior to 5.1
Description:
The issue allows attackers to cause a denial of service, specifically an audio policy application outage, by providing a crafted application with a NULL device address. This is related to the `audio/AudioPolicyManagerBase.cpp` file in Android.
