CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedThe vulnerability affects the Linux kernel's Tegra I2C driver, where a failure in acquiring a mutex lock leads to a leak of the runtime power management reference. This oversight prevents the device from entering runtime suspend, potentially resulting in increased power consumption and reduced battery life for affected devices. Organizations utilizing Linux systems with Tegra hardware should prioritize addressing this issue to optimize power management and device performance.
Original NVD Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: i2c: tegra: fix pm_runtime leak on mutex_lock failure If tegra_i2c_mutex_lock() fails, the function returns without calling pm_runtime_put(), leaking the runtime PM reference acquired by the preceding pm_runtime_get_sync(). This prevents the device from ever entering runtime suspend. Add the missing pm_runtime_put() before returning on lock failure.
