The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit changes the Trezor production-test command-line interface so that CRC checksums can be applied either globally or per-command using a new 'checked-' prefix. It is a feature addition, not a fix for an exploitable vulnerability. The change does touch CRC parsing code, but the diff shows no obvious security bug such as buffer overflow or bypass. The main risk is that any mistake in the new CRC logic could weaken integrity checks for a low-privilege manufacturing/debug interface.

Recommended action

Review the new CRC computation boundaries carefully to ensure the 'checked-' prefix and final CRC token are excluded consistently, and that an attacker cannot truncate or mangle a command to bypass verification. Verify that the unused cstr_ends_with/cstr_remove_suffix helpers do not introduce dead code that could be linked into attack surface. No urgent action is indicated from the diff alone.

Security signals we found

01

Refactoring of authentication/integrity verification logic (CRC)

02

Addition of new command prefix that can enable per-command CRC enforcement

03

New string utility functions added but not visibly used in the changed code path
