What it is

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

Bluetooth: MGMT: validate LTK enc_size on load

Load Long Term Keys stores the user-provided enc_size and later uses

it to size fixed-size stack operations when replying to LE LTK

requests. An enc_size larger than the 16-byte key buffer can therefore

overflow the reply stack buffer.

Reject oversized enc_size values while validating the management LTK

record so invalid keys never reach the stored key state.
