Description

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's drm/vc4 graphics driver. During runtime power suspend transitions, the driver does not properly disable hardware interrupts before powering down the device. A local user triggering power transitions could cause interrupt handlers to execute while the hardware is unpowered, resulting in invalid register reads and improper background task scheduling. This flaw may lead to system instability or a Denial of Service (DoS).
