The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit adds a one-time 'rework' feature to the Trezor production-test tool, allowing a factory worker to overwrite a device's variant (color, Bitcoin-only flag, packaging) if it was originally written incorrectly. The change is intended for manufacturing repair, not normal user operation. It does not appear to be a security patch; it is a production-process feature.

Recommended action

No immediate action required. Treat as a manufacturing-feature commit. If reviewing for supply-chain assurance, verify that prodtest firmware is only used in controlled factory environments and that the --rework option cannot be invoked by end-user firmware or unauthorized tooling.

Security signals we found

01

New OTP block for one-time variant correction

02

Rework write requires original variant block to be locked and new value to differ

03

Rework block itself is locked after writing

04

Runtime code prefers locked rework block over original variant block

05

Feature is limited to prodtest firmware CLI, not end-user firmware
