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...
DEBIAN-CVE-2020-14308
In grub2 versions before 2.06 the grub memory allocator doesn't check for possible arithmetic overflows on the requested allocation size. This leads the function to return invalid memory allocations which can be further used to cause possible integrity, confidentiality and availability impacts...
AZL-6456 CVE-2020-14308 affecting package grub2 for versions less than 2.06~rc1-7
In grub2 versions before 2.06 the grub memory allocator doesn't check for possible arithmetic overflows on the requested allocation size. This leads the function to return invalid memory allocations which can be further used to cause possible integrity, confidentiality and availability impacts...

Billions of Devices Impacted by Secure Boot Bypass
Billions of Windows and Linux devices are vulnerable to cyberattacks stemming from a bug in the GRUB2 bootloader, researchers are warning. GRUB2 which stands for the GRand Unified Bootloader version 2 is the default bootloader for the majority of computing systems. Its job is to manage part of th...
grub2: Fail kernel validation without shim protocol
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...
Moderate: Red Hat Security Advisory: grub2 security and bug fix update
An update for grub2, shim, shim-signed, and fwupdate is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7. Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Moderate. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System CVSS base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available...
grub2: Use-after-free redefining a function whilst the same function is already executing
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...
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...

kernel: lockdown: bypass through ACPI write via efivar_ssdt
A flaw was found in how the ACPI table loading through the EFI variable and the related efivarssdt boot option was handled when the Linux kernel was locked down. This flaw allows a root privileged local user to circumvent the kernel lockdown restrictions. The highest threat from this vulnerabilit...
