The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit is a large internal refactor of the Trezor bootloader's event loop, moving it from C into Rust and changing how screens handle USB/Bluetooth communication. The title and message explicitly call it a refactor with '[no changelog]', and there is no vendor statement that this fixes a security bug. The diff shows substantial code movement but no obvious new vulnerability. Because it is a wide-reaching rewrite of security-critical boot-time code, it carries ordinary implementation risk, but the available materials do not demonstrate a concrete security issue.

Recommended action

Treat as a normal high-risk refactor: run full bootloader test suite, verify USB/BLE message dispatch, confirm power-manager suspend/hibernate behavior, and check that workflow_result_t constant changes do not break ABI with remaining C callers. No immediate security patch is indicated by the supplied materials.

Security signals we found

01

Large refactor of bootloader event loop (security-critical code)

02

Removal of C workflow_host_control() and migration of USB/BLE dispatch to Rust

03

Change of workflow_result_t magic constants (ABI risk, not exploit)

04

Power-manager idle/suspend/hibernate logic moved into Rust loop

05

No vendor security claim or changelog entry present
