CVE: CVE-2023-24023

JIRA: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-19668

commit 04a342cc49a8522e99c9b3346371c329d841dcd2 Author: Alex Lu alex_lu@realsil.com.cn Date: Tue Dec 12 10:30:34 2023 +0800

Bluetooth: Add more enc key size check

When we are slave role and receives l2cap conn req when encryption has
started, we should check the enc key size to avoid KNOB attack or BLUFFS
attack.
From SIG recommendation, implementations are advised to reject
service-level connections on an encrypted baseband link with key
strengths below 7 octets.
A simple and clear way to achieve this is to place the enc key size
check in hci_cc_read_enc_key_size()

The btmon log below shows the case that lacks enc key size check.
