Arbitrary Code Execution

grub is vulnerable to arbitrary code execution. A use-after-free in the mmod implementation allows for the bypass of Secure Boot protections and potentially arbtirary code execution on the host OS...

Arbitrary Code Execution

grub is vulnerable to arbitrary code execution. An attacker is able to remove address ranges from memory via the cutmem command to bypass Secure Boot protections...

Privilege Escalation

grub2 is vulnerable to privilege escalation. The vulnerability exists as variable names present are expanded in the supplied command line into their corresponding variable contents, using a 1kB stack buffer for temporary storage, without sufficient bounds checking. If the function is called with ...

Arbitrary Code Execution

grub is vulnerable to arbitrary code execution. The ACPI command is incorrectly enabled when Secure Boot is enabled, allowing an attacker to craft a malicious SSDT that overwrites the memory containing the kernel lockdown variable content, resulting in arbitrary code execution...

CVE-2020-14372: Incomplete List of Disallowed Inputs

A flaw was found in grub2 in versions prior to 2.06, where it incorrectly enables the usage of the ACPI command when Secure Boot is enabled. This flaw allows an attacker with privileged access to craft a Secondary System Description Table SSDT containing code to overwrite the Linux kernel lockdow...

Debian DSA-4867-1 : grub2 - security update

Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the GRUB2 bootloader. - CVE-2020-14372 It was discovered that the acpi command allows a privileged user to load crafted ACPI tables when Secure Boot is enabled. - CVE-2020-25632 A use-after-free vulnerability was found in the rmmod command. -...

CVE-2020-25632: Use After Free

A flaw was found in grub2 in versions prior to 2.06. The rmmod implementation allows the unloading of a module used as a dependency without checking if any other dependent module is still loaded leading to a use-after-free scenario. This could allow arbitrary code to be executed or a bypass of...

CVE-2020-27749: Stack-based Buffer Overflow

A flaw was found in grub2 in versions prior to 2.06. Variable names present are expanded in the supplied command line into their corresponding variable contents, using a 1kB stack buffer for temporary storage, without sufficient bounds checking. If the function is called with a command line that...

CVE-2020-27779: Improper Authorization

A flaw was found in grub2 in versions prior to 2.06. The cutmem command does not honor secure boot locking allowing an privileged attacker to remove address ranges from memory creating an opportunity to circumvent SecureBoot protections after proper triage about grub's memory layout. The highest...

CVE-2020-25647: Out-of-bounds Write

A flaw was found in grub2 in versions prior to 2.06. During USB device initialization, descriptors are read with very little bounds checking and assumes the USB device is providing sane values. If properly exploited, an attacker could trigger memory corruption leading to arbitrary code execution...
