3. Description:
The grub2 packages provide version 2 of the Grand Unified Boot Loader
(GRUB), a highly configurable and customizable boot loader with modular
architecture. The packages support a variety of kernel formats, file
systems, computer architectures, and hardware devices.
The shim package contains a first-stage UEFI boot loader that handles
chaining to a trusted full boot loader under secure boot environments.
The fwupdate packages provide a service that allows session software to
update device firmware.
Security Fix(es):
* grub2: Crafted grub.cfg file can lead to arbitrary code execution during
boot process (CVE-2020-10713)
* grub2: grub_malloc does not validate allocation size allowing for
arithmetic overflow and subsequent heap-based buffer overflow
(CVE-2020-14308)
* grub2: Integer overflow in grub_squash_read_symlink may lead to
heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-2020-14309)
* grub2: Integer overflow read_section_as_string may lead to heap-based
buffer overflow (CVE-2020-14310)
* grub2: Integer overflow in grub_ext2_read_link leads to heap-based buffer
overflow (CVE-2020-14311)
* grub2: Fail kernel validation without shim protocol (CVE-2020-15705)
* grub2: Use-after-free redefining a function whilst the same function is
already executing (CVE-2020-15706)
* grub2: Integer overflow in initrd size handling (CVE-2020-15707)
For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS
score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE
page(s) listed in the References section.
Bug Fix(es):
* grub2 should get resynced with 7.8 branch (BZ#1861857)
