Title:
  bluetooth always in discoverable mode (security issue)

Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Excerpt from a similar report
  (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1602985) :

  Opening the Bluetooth settings will make the device discoverable
  again, but does not make the device undiscoverable after the settings
  are closed (this is not intended behavior; devices should only be
  discoverable when the bluetooth settings UI is open).

  There seem to be a merge request :

  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-bluetooth/merge_requests/1

  Could you please merge it asap, it should be treated as a security
  issue IMHO.
