Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfc: trf7970a: power down on startup RX gain failure
trf7970a_startup() powers up the device before applying the optional RX
gain reduction. If the register read or write fails, it returns without
undoing that power-up. Probe's unwind only drops the separate regulator
references acquired by probe, leaving the additional VIN enable from
startup unbalanced. The system resume caller also has no power-down on
this error.
Call trf7970a_power_down() before returning the RX gain error to deassert
the enable GPIOs, release the startup VIN reference and restore the
powered-off state. Runtime PM has not been enabled yet, so the full
shutdown helper is not appropriate here. Preserve the original SPI error.
This issue was identified during our ongoing static-analysis research while
reviewing kernel code.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Near Field Communication (NFC) TRF7970A driver. This vulnerability can lead to a denial of service (DoS) or improper hardware state due to unreleased power resources. If a communication error occurs while configuring receiver gain during device startup or system resume, the driver exits without powering off the hardware. Consequently, power regulators and control lines remain enabled, resulting in a persistent resource leak.
