Month 2025-08: ESP-Nimble BLE transport initialization order bug fix delivered. The change ensures the low-level BLE transport initializes after the host transport and adds a deinitialization call for the low-level transport to guarantee clean startup and shutdown. This improves startup reliability and reduces runtime issues in BLE transport initialization sequencing.

March 2025 – Espressif esp-nimble: delivered a critical bug fix ensuring correct and consistent use of the secp256r1 curve across cryptographic operations by replacing direct curve references with a function-based parameter retrieval (uECC_secp256r1). This change improves reliability for key validation, shared secret generation, and key pair creation, strengthening security posture with minimal risk. Validated through existing tests and code review; emphasizes robustness and maintainability of cryptographic primitives.
