NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream edk2 package and not the edk2 package as distributed by Debian.

Integer overflow in the Drive Execution Environment (DXE) phase in the Capsule Update feature in the UEFI implementation in EDK2 allows physically proximate attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via crafted data.
