Description
A vulnerability was found in the Qualcomm firmware driver (qcom_qseecom_uefisecapp) in the Linux kernel. It arises from incorrect memory allocation for request and response buffers in the QSEECOM APP_SEND command. The driver expects both buffers to be in a single memory region, but they are allocated separately, leading to potential issues such as no response being written (EIO error), failure of the SCM call (EINVAL), or device hard-reset. The issue is fixed by allocating a single memory region for both buffers, with DMA allocation responsibilities moved to the caller.
