look at one of the newest findings in security research:
a 0day, enabling privilige escalation in the linux kernel, can be exploited without user interaction via bluetooth. bad, right ? well yes.
and for most active linux distros this will be fixed in the coming weeks or so (if bluetooth is part of the distro at all).
but in the case of most android devices, and because of the stoneage kernels that are used in many of the versions this will stay open forever.
