NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream grub2-ppc64le package and not the grub2-ppc64le package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

When reading the language .mo file in grub_mofile_open(), grub2 fails to verify an integer overflow when allocating its internal buffer. A crafted .mo file may lead the buffer size calculation to overflow, leading to out-of-bound reads and writes. This flaw allows an attacker to leak sensitive data or overwrite critical data, possibly circumventing secure boot protections.
