grub2: Integer overflow in initrd size handling

Integer overflows were discovered in the functions grubcmdinitrd and grubinitrdinit in the efilinux component of GRUB2, as shipped in Debian, Red Hat, and Ubuntu the functionality is not included in GRUB2 upstream, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow. These could be triggered by an extremely...

grub2: Crafted grub.cfg file can lead to arbitrary code execution during boot process

A flaw was found in grub2, prior to version 2.06. An attacker may use the GRUB 2 flaw to hijack and tamper the GRUB verification process. This flaw also allows the bypass of Secure Boot protections. In order to load an untrusted or modified kernel, an attacker would first need to establish access...

ALPINE-CVE-2020-15705

GRUB2 fails to validate kernel signature when booted directly without shim, allowing secure boot to be bypassed. This only affects systems where the kernel signing certificate has been imported directly into the secure boot database and the GRUB image is booted directly without the use of shim...

ALPINE-CVE-2020-15706

GRUB2 contains a race condition in grubscriptfunctioncreate leading to a use-after-free vulnerability which can be triggered by redefining a function whilst the same function is already executing, leading to arbitrary code execution and secure boot restriction bypass. This issue affects GRUB2...
