[PATCH 1/2] shared/gatt-server: Avoid memory corruption

[PATCH 1/2] shared/gatt-server: Avoid memory corruption

[Romain Izard]

When sending notification and indication data, the size of the allocated
packet is the smallest of the MTU and the payload size.

The copy procedure uses the payload size in all cases, which can lead to
memory corruption. Use the packet size instead.

[PATCH 2/2] shared/gatt-server: Fix notification & indication packet size

[Romain Izard]

For both Handle Value Notification & Handle Value Indication, the size
of the payload is limited to (ATT_MTU - 3) bytes, as indicated in Vol 3,
part F, section 3.4.7.1 & 3.4.7.2 of the Bluetooth 4.2 specification.

In the function, the first reserved byte is implicit and corresponds to
the opcode, while the 2 next bytes are explicit and contain the
attribute handle.

Ensure that the truncation of large payloads is done with the correct
value.
