"The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 7.02, has grub2 packages installed that are affected by multiple
vulnerabilities:

  - A flaw was found in grub2. When reading data from a squash4 filesystem, grub's squash4 fs module uses
    user-controlled parameters from the filesystem geometry to determine the internal buffer size, however, it
    improperly checks for integer overflows. A maliciously crafted filesystem may lead some of those buffer
    size calculations to overflow, causing it to perform a grub_malloc() operation with a smaller size than
    expected. As a result, the direct_read() will perform a heap based out-of-bounds write during data
    reading. This flaw may be leveraged to corrupt grub's internal critical data and may result in arbitrary
    code execution, by-passing secure boot protections. (CVE-2025-0678)

  - A stack overflow flaw was found when reading a BFS file system. A crafted BFS filesystem may lead to an
    uncontrolled loop, causing grub2 to crash. (CVE-2024-45778)

  - An integer overflow flaw was found in the BFS file system driver in grub2. When reading a file with an
    indirect extent map, grub2 fails to validate the number of extent entries to be read. A crafted or
    corrupted BFS filesystem may cause an integer overflow during the file reading, leading to a heap of
    bounds read. As a consequence, sensitive data may be leaked, or grub2 will crash. (CVE-2024-45779)

  - A flaw was found in the HFS filesystem. When reading an HFS volume's name at grub_fs_mount(), the HFS
    filesystem driver performs a strcpy() using the user-provided volume name as input without properly
    validating the volume name's length. This issue may read to a heap-based out-of-bounds writer, impacting
    grub's sensitive data integrity and eventually leading to a secure boot protection bypass.
    (CVE-2024-45782)

  - GNU GRUB (aka GRUB2) through 2.12 has a heap-based buffer overflow in fs/hfs.c via crafted sblock data in
    an HFS filesystem. (CVE-2024-56737)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
