Hi Dan,

1. ptk - I think you are right here - need to verify that key_idx doesn't exceed sta->ptk array boundaries. I'll prepare the fix
2. gtk - frankly I'm not sure about key_idx < NUM_DEFAULT_KEYS. I understand why it's here: not to return management keys, but I don't see a reason why not to do it... In any case I'll prepare the fix for this case too
