This was already reported privately before this patch was sent, and
more comprehensive patches will soon be made public.

This was already discussed and fixed upstream:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/bluetooth/bluez.git/commit/?id=bd8989620ed6e80755f06cfdb18f5b4a3913493c

In the future, please use either the security advisories functionality
on GitHub to report the security issues privately:
https://github.com/bluez/bluez/security/advisories
or email invididual patches with the [BlueZ] prefix, following standard
kernel patch submissions, to report them publicly:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v7.0/process/submitting-patches.html
