The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit updates the Trezor firmware build system and emulator code to use SDL3 instead of the older SDL2 library. It is a routine dependency migration affecting only emulator builds (software simulations of the hardware wallet), not the real device firmware. The changes rename functions and constants to match SDL3's API, adjust build scripts, and add a couple of small safety checks. There is no indication this fixes a known security vulnerability.

Recommended action

Treat as a normal maintenance/dependency migration. Verify emulator builds and tests pass with SDL3. No security-specific response is warranted based on the supplied materials.

Security signals we found

01

Dependency version bump (SDL2 -> SDL3) for emulator-only code paths

02

Minor added NULL checks in display suspend overlay and screenshot cropping paths

03

No changes to cryptographic, storage, bootloader verification, or hardware-wallet runtime logic

04

No vendor security advisory, CVE, or researcher attribution present in commit or references
