Description
A race condition was found in the Tegra210 Quad SPI driver. The curr_xfer field is cleared without holding the spinlock, allowing the IRQ handler to read a partially updated or stale value, potentially leading to NULL pointer dereference or use-after-free.
Statement
This affects NVIDIA Tegra210-based systems using the Quad SPI controller. The race requires specific timing between SPI transfer completion and interrupt handling, making exploitation difficult but potentially causing system crashes.
