How to fix?

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-rt-trace package and not the kernel-rt-trace package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

The do_hidp_sock_ioctl function in net/bluetooth/hidp/sock.c in the Linux kernel before 5.0.15 allows a local user to obtain potentially sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a HIDPCONNADD command, because a name field may not end with a '\0' character.
