In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: l2cap: Check encryption key size on incoming connection
This is required for passing GAP/SEC/SEM/BI-04-C PTS test case:
Security Mode 4 Level 4, Responder - Invalid Encryption Key Size
- 128 bit
This tests the security key with size from 1 to 15 bytes while the
Security Mode 4 Level 4 requests 16 bytes key size.
Currently PTS fails with the following logs:
- expected:Connection Response:
