Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description An issue exists in the sdhci-esdhc-imx driver where the use of pm runtime get sync() during suspend requires complex error handling. If the process fails, the device remains unclocked, and subsequent attempts to access hardware registers can trigger a kernel panic, which is a critical system crash. The fix involves replacing pm runtime get sync() with the pm runtime resume and get() function, which automatically manages the usage counter upon failure and ensures the error is returned immediately to prevent system instability.
Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
