The shim package contains a first-stage UEFI boot loader that handles chaining
to a trusted full boot loader under secure boot environments.
Security Fix(es):
shim: RCE in http boot support may lead to Secure Boot bypass (CVE-2023-40547)
shim: Interger overflow leads to heap buffer overflow in verify_sbat_section on 32-bits systems (CVE-2023-40548)
shim: Out-of-bounds read printing error messages (CVE-2023-40546)
shim: Out-of-bounds read in verify_buffer_authenticode() malformed PE file (CVE-2023-40549)

IMPORTANT: The new shim revokes ALL VERSIONS of GRUB2 before grub2-2.02-0.87.el7_9.14. Therefore GRUB2 MUST be updated to the latest
version: grub2-2.02-0.87.el7_9.14 BEFORE or SIMULTANEOUSLY with this shim in order for Secure Boot to continue to work. Failure to update GRUB2 will result in an UNBOOTABLE system.
