Description
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Qualcomm Serial Peripheral Interface (spi-qcom-qspi) driver. This flaw can result in a Denial of Service (DoS) or system instability due to incomplete error handling during runtime power management (PM) suspend and resume operations. If an operation fails midway, acquired resources are not properly released, leaving power and clock settings in an inconsistent state. A local user could exploit these failure conditions to disrupt device operations and cause a system crash.
