[PATCH 3.13 005/198] Bluetooth: Fix check for connection encryption

From: Kamal Mostafa
Date: Tue Jul 15 2014 - 18:25:32 EST


3.13.11.5 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Johan Hedberg <johan.hedberg@xxxxxxxxx>

commit e694788d73efe139b24f78b036deb97fe57fa8cb upstream.

The conn->link_key variable tracks the type of link key in use. It is
set whenever we respond to a link key request as well as when we get a
link key notification event.

These two events do not however always guarantee that encryption is
enabled: getting a link key request and responding to it may only mean
that the remote side has requested authentication but not encryption. On
the other hand, the encrypt change event is a certain guarantee that
encryption is enabled. The real encryption state is already tracked in
the conn->link_mode variable through the HCI_LM_ENCRYPT bit.

This patch fixes a check for encryption in the hci_conn_auth function to
use the proper conn->link_mode value and thereby eliminates the chance
of a false positive result.
