Bluetooth: SMP: force responder MITM requirements before building the pairing response

2026-04-11T12:16:26+00:00

commit d05111bfe37bfd8bd4d2dfe6675d6bdeef43f7c7 upstream. smp_cmd_pairing_req() currently builds the pairing response from the initiator auth_req before enforcing the local BT_SECURITY_HIGH requirement. If the initiator omits SMP_AUTH_MITM, the response can also omit it even though the local side still requires MITM. tk_request() then sees an auth value without SMP_AUTH_MITM and may select JUST_CFM, making method selection inconsistent with the pairing policy the responder already enforces. When the local side requires HIGH security, first verify that MITM can be achieved from the IO capabilities and then force SMP_AUTH_MITM in the response in both rsp.auth_req and auth. This keeps the responder auth bits and later method selection aligned.

Bluetooth: SMP: derive legacy responder STK authentication from MITM state

2026-04-11T12:16:26+00:00

commit 20756fec2f0108cb88e815941f1ffff88dc286fe upstream. The legacy responder path in smp_random() currently labels the stored STK as authenticated whenever pending_sec_level is BT_SECURITY_HIGH. That reflects what the local service requested, not what the pairing flow actually achieved. For Just Works/Confirm legacy pairing, SMP_FLAG_MITM_AUTH stays clear and the resulting STK should remain unauthenticated even if the local side requested HIGH security. Use the established MITM state when storing the responder STK so the key metadata matches the pairing result. This also keeps the legacy path aligned with the Secure Connections code, which already treats JUST_WORKS/JUST_CFM as unauthenticated.

Bluetooth: SMP: Fix not generating mackey and ltk when repairing

2025-12-06T21:12:41+00:00

[ Upstream commit 545d7827b2cd5de5eb85580cebeda6b35b3ff443 ] The change eed467b517e8 ("Bluetooth: fix passkey uninitialized when used") introduced a goto that bypasses the creation of temporary mackey and ltk which are later used by the likes of DHKey Check step. Later ffee202a78c2 ("Bluetooth: Always request for user confirmation for Just Works (LE SC)") which means confirm_hint is always set in case JUST_WORKS so the branch checking for an existing LTK becomes pointless as confirm_hint will always be set, so this just merge both cases of malicious or legitimate devices to be confirmed before continuing with the pairing procedure.

Bluetooth: SMP: Fix using HCI_ERROR_REMOTE_USER_TERM on timeout

[ Upstream commit 6ef99c917688a8510259e565bd1b168b7146295a ] This replaces the usage of HCI_ERROR_REMOTE_USER_TERM, which as the name suggest is to indicate a regular disconnection initiated by an user, with HCI_ERROR_AUTH_FAILURE to indicate the session has timeout thus any pairing shall be considered as failed.

Bluetooth: MGMT/SMP: Fix address type when using SMP over BREDR/LE

2024-01-01T12:39:03+00:00

commit 59b047bc98084f8af2c41483e4d68a5adf2fa7f7 upstream. If two Bluetooth devices both support BR/EDR and BLE, and also support Secure Connections, then they only need to pair once. The LTK generated during the LE pairing process may be converted into a BR/EDR link key for BR/EDR transport, and conversely, a link key generated during the BR/EDR SSP pairing process can be converted into an LTK for LE transport. Hence, the link type of the link key and LTK is not fixed, they can be either an LE LINK or an ACL LINK. Currently, in the mgmt_new_irk/ltk/crsk/link_key functions, the link type is fixed, which could lead to incorrect address types being reported to the application layer. Therefore, it is necessary to add link_type/addr_type to the smp_irk/ltk/crsk and link_key, to ensure the generation of the correct address type.

[ Upstream commit de4eda9de2d957ef2d6a8365a01e26a435e958cb ] READ/WRITE proved to be actively confusing - the meanings are "data destination, as used with read(2)" and "data source, as used with write(2)", but people keep interpreting those as "we read data from it" and "we write data to it", i.e. exactly the wrong way. Call them ITER_DEST and ITER_SOURCE - at least that is harder to misinterpret...
