"The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 6.06, has grub2 packages installed that are affected by a
vulnerability:

  - When rendering certain unicode sequences, grub2's font code doesn't proper validate if the informed
    glyph's width and height is constrained within bitmap size. As consequence an attacker can craft an input
    which will lead to a out-of-bounds write into grub2's heap, leading to memory corruption and availability
    issues. Although complex, arbitrary code execution could not be discarded. (CVE-2022-3775)

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