In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i2c: imx: fix locked bus on SMBus block-read of 0 (IRQ)
SMBus 3.1 6.5.7 allows a Block Read byte count of 0, but the
interrupt-driven block-read state machine rejects it as -EPROTO. Worse,
it returns without a NACK+STOP: the next receive cycle has already
started, so the target keeps holding SDA and the bus stays stuck until a
power cycle of this i2c controller.
Accept count=0: NACK the in-flight dummy byte (TXAK) and set msg->len to
2 so i2c_imx_isr_read_continue() emits STOP via its normal last-byte
path. The dummy byte is discarded; block-read callers only consume
buf[0..count-1].
Reading I2DR has likewise already armed the next byte on the
count > I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_MAX error path, so NACK it (TXAK) before aborting
with -EPROTO; otherwise the failing transfer's STOP cannot complete and
the bus stays held.
The atomic path regressed earlier (v3.16) and is fixed separately; this
patch covers only the v6.13 state-machine rework.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's i2c-imx driver. A malicious device on the I2C bus or a local attacker with access to the I2C bus could exploit this vulnerability by initiating an SMBus block-read operation with a zero byte count. This can cause the I2C bus to become locked, requiring a power cycle of the controller to restore functionality, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS).
