The length of the received data is contained in the ctxt->chr_access.len
field.  For example, bleprph handles an incoming write of the
gap-reconnect-address characteristic as follows:

    case BLE_GAP_CHR_UUID16_RECONNECT_ADDR:
        assert(op == BLE_GATT_ACCESS_OP_WRITE_CHR);
        if (ctxt->chr_access.len != sizeof bleprph_reconnect_addr) {
            return BLE_ATT_ERR_INVALID_ATTR_VALUE_LEN;
        }
        memcpy(bleprph_reconnect_addr, ctxt->chr_access.data,
               sizeof bleprph_reconnect_addr);
        break;

The code validates the length of the incoming data immediately after the
assert() invocation.
